lyrics

I sold my loving to the girls next door
They bought it all and then they asked for more
Hey won’t you leave some of it for the poor?

I saw my demon on 395
Pulled over, asked if he could use a ride
Sometimes you have to love the things you hide from

For all my life
I’ve been looking for the answer
To a question that was never worded right
And I know it’s trite
Oh to be questioning the answers
And to never look at life through hindsight

I brought my donkey to a horses show
Everyone laughed; thought he was a joke
Just want my donkey to feel loved, you know?

I am the drummer in a cover band
We only cover songs by Steely Dan
They call us Aja & The Royal Scamps

For all my life
I’ve been looking for the answer
To a question that was never worded right
And I know it’s trite
Oh to be questioning the answers
And to never look at life through hindsight

She walked right out of some French fairy tale
Eating foie gras and drinking Belgian ale
Surprised she wasn’t sucking down a snail

You know the girl she’s got a PHD
She don’t need no one no she don’t need me
I’m out here rearranging the ABCs

For all my life
I’ve been looking for the answer
To a question that was never worded right
And I know it’s trite
Oh to be questioning the answers
And to never look at life through hindsight
For all my life
For all my life
For all my life
