Ben Folds - Alice Childress Lyrics
Some summers in the eveningAfter six or soI walk on down the hillAnd maybe buy a beerI think about my friendsSometimes i wishThey lived out hereBut they wouldn'tDig this townNo they wouldn'tDig this townChorusTry not to think about itAlice childressTry not to think about it anymoreTry not to think about itAlice childressAnymore,No not anymoreNoAlice the worldIs full of ugly thingsThat you can't changePretend it's not that wayThat's my idea of faithYou can blow it offAnd say there's goodIn nearly everyoneJust give them all a chanceGive them all a chanceChorusNo it didn't work outNo it didn't work outThe way we thought it wouldNo it didn't work outAn arranged marriageIs not so goodThank god it's youYou know your timing isImpeccableI'm not fooling youI don't know what to doSome dude just knocked me coldAnd left me on the sidewalkTook everything i hadEverything i hadTry not to thing about itAlice childressTry not to think about it anymoreIt's getting light where you areAlice childressAnymore, no not anymoreAnymore, no not anymore
