Here Comes the Downer

Here comes the downer
'bout to spoil our good time
here comes the downer, man
his life isn't worth a dime
I wish he'd find another bar
to hang around in
I don't want to be
with him all the time.


 hunched over his
 little section of the bar
 leering at his drink
 with patriotic greed...


I feel like I'm goin down
with Jackson Browne.
it's ten after seven
I'm kinda high already
I just got out of work
got not much money, but
gotta think of a good line.


 hey,
your friends
 just look like props around you
 because you are so beautiful,
  so electric...


Eight o'clock - now what?
fall in love? I've already done that
once tonight.
Juke box lady, I want to buy you a song
I'll even spend 50 cents on you.
Who are you calling on the phone?
Come back!
