I met you in a record store.
You had slept in the clothes you wore.
But I knew I'd seen you somewhere before.

What happened to your guitar?
And what happened to the prettiest star?
Can you still play the songs that got you so far?

Hey you, with your shadow in the gutter!
How low have you gotta go before you're through?
High times and vodka in the morning.
All your memories are coming out of your shoes.

Black dog sitting in the park,
Odd looks from the mothers of the devil's own
Shoplifting, getting your essentials
Gate crashing, christenings and funerals...
And weddings too.

I used to see you all the time on MTV.
Read your life story in a magazine.
I guess you thought that's the way it would always be

But I believe in you
Cause I think that you'd want me to
Though I never really liked your songs it's true.

Hey you, with your shadow in the gutter!
How low have you gotta go before you're through?
High times and vodka in the morning.
All your memories are coming out of your shoes.

Black dog sitting in the park,
Odd looks from the mothers of the devil's own
Shoplifting, getting your essentials
Gate crashing, christenings and funerals...
And weddings too.
