The Rent Lyrics

Twenty-seven dollar dress shoes and a ride back home

Still hard to comprehend leaving on my own

Papers all said Old Joe's back from the grave

I don't suppose they know I wasn't dead all of those days most all those Days

And if I acquire some fine complacence

Send a message down the line

Please define the things you meant

I'd say where you're concerned I'm patience

Just looking through the old façade

Space between the thoughts is God

Don't forget to pay the rent

I heard welcome back Joe but their eyes weren't saying it

I don't suppose they're thinking it the way they're praying yet

The question is how that scar is healing

The answer my beloved is to which scar might you be referring

And if I ain't quite the one you knew then

Please forgive the cold reflection

We're all mirrors in the end

And if I decide to heed direction

Just spoiled children spared the rod

Space between the thoughts is God

Don't forget to pay the rent

The rent the rent the rent the rent the rent the rent

The rent the rent the rent the rent the rent the rent the rent

The rent the rent the rent the rent the rent the rent the rent

The rent the rent the rent the rent the rent the rent the rent the rent

If I decide to heed direction

Just spoiled children spared the rod

Space between the thoughts is God

Don't forget to pay the rent

The rent the rent the rent the rent the rent the rent

The rent the rent the rent the rent the rent the rent the rent

The rent the rent the rent the rent the rent the rent the rent

The rent the rent the rent the rent the rent the rent the rent the rent

Pay the rent

Pay the rent the rent

The rent

Twenty-seven dollar dress shoes and a ride back home
