Four in the morning 
Came without warning 
Waiting at the station
Swaying in slow motion
Hours late and not sure where I’ve been
I’m sorry babe
You know how it is

Back from retirement 
My skills the requirement
Keeping my eyes peeled 
I’m the man behind the wheel
Couldn’t say if I’ll see you again
I’m sorry babe
You know how it is

A portion of the proceeds
Goes towards my service fee
Won’t you make a pledge to me
A tenth of all you make a week
To congregate around the abyss
I’m sorry babe
You know how it is 

Metaphors are mysteries 
Made up for our histories 
The Minotaur of Minos
Man o’ Wars between us
Either way that’s what they call showbiz 
I’m sorry babe
You know how it is

You Know How It Is 2023
