Lyrics
Your silver child suspended in space
Crying out to you
Beckons you to yet another fine place
Where the trials of life are few
Who says you're coming on?
Don't think you're living wrong
They won't remember you
The rent is always due
The cloudy men who take their place
And stand in line, they do
Know not of the satin face
That separates them from you
Just put your blue jeans on
Grab your guitar and write a song
Don't think I'm kidding you
The rent is always due
She rides a broom with gold-plated straw
And flutters around and dies
The Brylcreem fools just stand in awe
Digesting all her lies
But then you walk along
And she starts coming on
Beneath her melting broom
The rent is always due
