5. Unwind
It's late at night, I'll be up til dawn
my pink flamingo guards the lawn
no chance of sleeping but I keep hanging on
I'm watching TV, milk in my coffee
as I say softly "It's nice to be withdrawn"
My mind is aching and so are my eyes
the smoke the noise like the 4th of july
no chance of sleeping, but I keep haning on
maybe you'll see, if only briefly
sometimes I wish that things could be alright
Could I lie in your chair and speak my mind?
Would you stand over there, let me take up your time?
Could you fix me a drink, could you help me unwind?
