Just Like Before
My long hair it blows, in the industrial breeze.
My fingernails grow, down to my knees.
The light thats beside me, is just laves of beans.
All that I know, is not what it seems.
Cause Ive tried moving out,
But Im tied to this floor.
Its just like before.
Its the red of the world, that you see with your eyes.
You say that youre happy, when youre wanting to die.
Oh well, its just like before.
Oh well, it runs in your veins.
Just like before.
It keeps it the same.
Cause Ive tried moving out,
But Im tied to this floor.
Its just like before.
Well, the suns in the sky, it swings and it sways.
But it dont shine on tuesdays, and its cloudy all day.
Its just like before.
Oh, when it runs in your veins.
Its just like before.
Nothing will change.
Cause Ive tried moving out,
But Im tied to this floor.
Its just like before.

Look Through Any Window
Look through any window, yeah
What do you see?
Smiling faces all around
Rushing through the busy town
Where do they go?
Moving on their way
Walking down the highways and the byways
Where do they go?
Moving on their way
Are people with their shy ways and their sly ways
You can see the little children all around
You can see the little ladies in their gowns
When you look through any window, yeah
Any time of day
See the drivers on the roads
Button down their heavy loads
Where do they go?
Moving on their way
A-driving down the highways and the byways
Where do they go?
Moving on their way
Are drivers with their shy ways and their sly ways
You can see the little children all around
You can see the little ladies in their gowns
When you look through any window, yeah
What do you see?
Smiling faces all around
Rushing through the busy town
Moving on their way...
Ooh...moving on their way...
Where do they go...?
Moving on their way...ooh...

The New Wild West
You see the ghosts of the buffalo
Moving both fierce and slow
Like glittering prophesies
On the edge of the horizon
As you drive glittering highways
And beaten-up by-ways
That straddle and girdle
A great and many-faced nation
There are lambs in the ghettos
Who worship their Gapettos
Believing in

It is better for a woman to compete impersonally in society, as men do, than to compete for dominance in her own home with her husband, compete with her neighbors for empty status, and so smother her son that he cannot compete at all.
