Better Take Care of Me

when the dust blows through your teeth
and there's no more fat to chew
a hole opens in the sky
and the moon just falls right through
you better take care of me
you better take care of me

when the train has jumped the track
and the party's past its peak
when there ain't no fingers left
but the dike has sprung another leak
you better take care of me
you better take care of me

when you're all up in smoke
and the wind won't cry no name
when the chariot swings too low
and there's only god to blame
you better take care of me
you better take care of me

though the winds will have calmed
the floodwaters won't recede
we'll get everything we want
and nothing that we need
you better take care of me
you better take care of me
