Sad and lonely, now it's been and gone
Checking in and checking out
A blessing father if you please
I'm on the run, on the fun run
The drivers crawl along the curb
Here's a man who's run the marathon
I wonder, do they still remember me
The thought of walking's quite absurd
Dodgy sculptured license plates
Gifted artists need respect
Why be shy when you can kick the can and shout?
Help the hopeless in their need
The living church must move along
Let me check upon my family
Checking in and checking out
The dumbest thing I've ever heard
Why be shy when you can kick the can and shout?
Checking in and checking out
There behind those rusty gates
The Carmelites could use a song
The gifted sit around and wait
True collectors must collect
They don't need this kind of sleaze
