Forever getting low while he tried to be high
Are you alright darling, alright now?
He had to take the hit, it's always the same

He didn't see it coming, that's the tale of his life
She was living in the end
Are you alright darling, alright now?
But it's all the same for Billy Kincaid

Are you alright darling, alright now?
He was living in the end
The easy operator laid to rest in the night
Are you alright darling, alright now?
They always dominated everything that she owned
Polly and her pity wasn't pretty at all
He was an early morning eagle, lion flew from a fire

Chopping trees for needs of a spiritual kind

And that's the way she see it, killing Billy Kincaid
How could she afford to pay attention to life?
Don't you ever wanna, ever wanna see some change?
She couldn't stop to say she didn't have the time
You'll never be, never be the same

He was living in the end
If she had to do it over she would do it the same
If he had to do it over he would do it the same
Barely getting over forget getting by
Don't you ever wanna, ever wanna see some change?
Are you alright darling, alright now?
Oh, it's all the same for Polly the vain
She concentrated fully on the shine of the star
Don't you ever wanna, ever wanna see some change?

Don't you ever wanna, ever wanna see some change?
She was living in the end
Pinching pennies, just to pinch them she never let go

That's the way she see it, killing Billy Kincaid
