Some summers in the evening after six or so

I walk on down the hill and maybe buy a beer

I think about my friends

Sometimes I wish they lived out here But they wouldn't

Dig this town

No they wouldn't

Dig this town Try not to think about it, Alice Childress

Try not to think about it anymore

Try not to think about it, Alice Childress

Anymore, no not anymore, no Alice the world is full of ugly things

That you can't change

Pretend it's not that way

That's my idea of faith You can blow it off

And say there's good

In nearly everyone

Just give them all a chance

Give them all a chance Try not to think about it, Alice Childress

Try not to think about it anymore

Try not to think about it, Alice Childress

Anymore, no not anymore, no No it didn't work out

No it didn't work out

The way we thought it would

No it didn't work out

Anna raged marriage is not so good Thank God it's you

You know your timing is impeccable

I'm not fooling you

I don't know what to do Some dude just knocked me cold

And left me on the sidewalk

Took everything I had

Everything I had Try not to think about it, Alice Childress

Try not to think about it anymore

It's getting light where you are, Alice Childress

Anymore, no not anymore

Anymore, no not anymore
