ABC – If I Ever Thought You’d Be Lonely

Hold a candle to a naked flame

Ask the atheist his Christian name

Try parachuting from a burning plane

Finding someone else you could blame

If I ever thought you`d be lonely

If I ever thought you`d be there

If I ever fought the alimony

Painted pony

You`d be there

Eskimo heart

Bedouin throat

A butcher trussed up in a camel hair coat

A crowning in the castle

A drowning in the moat

Ocean dried,

Desert afloat

If I ever thought you`d be lonely

If I ever thought you`d be there

If I ever fought the alimony

My one and only

You`d be there

One for the lady,

One for the gent

Signatures in wet cement,

And if you ever ask,

What I meant then I`d never know,

Then I`d never know…
