i think it's perfectly clear
we're in the wrong band
ginger is always sincere
just not to one man
she called me up and she said
you know that i'm drowning
it's the dog trainer again
he says that he thinks that she needs more hands

i think it's perfectly clear
we're in the wrong band
senator let's be sincere
as much as we can
he called her up and he said
the new prosecutor soon will be wanting a word
so she's got a soft spot for heels and spurs
and there's something believin in her voice again
said there's something believin
instead of just leavin

and she gets her cigars from the sweet fat man
i think it's perfectly clear
we're in the wrong band
heidi says she'll be sincere
as much as she can
i called her up and i said
you know that i'm drowning
put on your raincoat again
cause even the sun's got a price on it
and there's something believin in her voice again
said there's something believin in her voice
instead of just leavin

she said it's time i open my eyes
don't be afraid to open your eyes
maybe she's right
maybe she's right
maybe she's right
maybe she's right

"There was this hooker in D.C. that I knew, and she'd been having a fling with one of the governors. She got in too deep and thought her life was threatened, so she fled to Japan where she was protected by one of the hierarchy over there. I never heard from her again. It just all came back to me when the Heidi Fleiss thing hit and I started thinking about what that world is about. People don't think of hookers as people, but I quite like them. I find their story really interesting, and when people start judging [them], they should just shut up because they have no idea what it's like to be on the other side."

"Orchards are simple a peach tree says 'some of me will be juicy and some of me will be dry I'm not growing for you I grow because thats what I do' you always hear some person complain about how dry their peach is and the peach says 'it's not our fault you have no understanding on the proper use for dry peaches."
