Never had silk, never had wings
Never could stay if the living was free
Call me a ride, pour me drink
What do you mean?
Said I would work, said I would pull
Said I would pick til the barrel was full
But it wasn't much fun, so what if I'm lean
I tried to stay clean
Some people don't mind
Well that's a good way to be
Everyone laughed, they were on fire
Would you believe it began in the dryer
Now it's too small and I know that you've seen
Don't be mean to me
Never had silk, never had wings
Or the wonderful ways of wordless things
Call me a ride, pour me a drink
What do you mean?
Some people don't mind
I'm afraid that I do
