    gary jules - umbilical town
    I hear you've got a pocket full of words

    That you keep in the garage

    Together with the feather and the fireworks

    A surftown hero who's got one foot in the garden

    Where the neon-lighted cocktail glasses bloom

    And they built you a model airplane

    Like the one that brought you back to Lindbergh field

    Now you're counting your change by the streetlights on India

    "Hey, it's me again, I'm faded...could I please come over?"

    You can do what you want

    In umbilical town

    In a waterfront bar

    Old gap-toothed Annie was a friend of mine

    The third time around she was born again

    She must have burned at least a half-a-million dollars

    In the little rooms next door to wash-and-fold

    And there ain't no consolation prize

    There is no backdoor to innocence

    Just the wild-eyed faces and names that you've forgotten

    "Hey, the money's gone, I'm broken, could I please come over?"

    You can do what you want

    In umbilical town

    In that waterfront bar

    I've been dreaming we were born together

    I've been thinking about it

    'Been lurking backstreets-kicking down alleyways

    I've been thinking about it

    How it's always worse than it appears
    Raskolnikov's out on the stairs

    Howling at the man in the moon

    They say he lost control
    Between the suburbs and the barrio
    Tired from too much too soon

    Now the air is thick with compromises

    We're always on the way

    So I take comfort in the only life I know

    Well you can do what you want

    In umbilical town

    At the waterfront bar

    In umbilical town

    You can do what you want

    You can do what you want

    You can do what you want
