1. FROM THE INSIDE (EDIT VERSION)

I got lost on the road somewhere
Was it Texas or was it Canada
Drinking whiskey in the morning light
I worked the stage all night long
At first we laughed about it
My long haired drunken friends
Proposed a toast to Jimi's ghost
I never dreamed that i would wind up on the losing end

I'm stuck here on the inside looking out
I'm just another case
Where's my makeup where's my face on the inside

Y'all got your kicks from what you saw up there
Eight bucks even buys a folding chair
I was downing seagrams on another flight
And i worked that stage all night long
You were screaming for the feeling up there
And i was much obliged
The old road sure screwed me good this time
It's hard to see where the vicious circle ends

I'm stuck here on the inside looking out
That's no big disgrace
Where's my makeup where's my face on the inside


2. NURSE ROZETTA

I'm a shepherd for the pentecost
I got my scriptures and my wires crossed
I got no kids and i got no home
They want us holy men to live alone

Since i've been here for a little stay
I see Rozetta day by day
She turns my head makes me cough
I want to tear my collar off

I just can't sleep at night
Rozetta dressed in white
She's got the devil's light
Shining in her eyes

Screamed my sermon damning sin and vice
When underneath i was a regular guy
My pulpit melted like a block of ice
When a bolt of lightning hit me from the sky

From my stretcher when they wheeled me in
I stared directly in the eyes of sin
Nurse Rozetta standing over me
And i was helpless as a man of god could be

Nurse Rozetta i won't let her
Catch me peering down her sweater
Fantasizing silk suspender on her thighs
Nurse Rozetta make me better
Secretly my eyes undress her
Let me feel your tongue depressor

I'm suddenly twice my size
My pants are all wet inside

She's so creative with a bar of soap
And so inventive with a stethoscope
To check my pulse she gotta hold my hand
I blow the fuse on the encephalogram

Satan sent her from the bowels of hell
I should have recognized old Jezbel
I surrendered to the urges felt
She popped the buckle on my bible belt

I just can't sleep at night
Rozetta dressed in white
She's got the devil's light
Shining in her eyes

I'd lick her nylon seams
Like a hungry cat with cream
Oh what a vivid seam
And i can't hold back no more
