Diplomat's Son
It's not right
But it's now or never
And if I wait
Could I ever forgive myself?
On the night
When the moon glows yellow in the riptide
There's a light
From the TV's buzzin' in the house.
'Cause I'm gonna cut it where I can and then
I'm gonna take it behind them
if I ever had a chance it's now then but
I never had the feelin' I could offer that to you.
To offer it to you would be cruel
When all I want to do is use, use you.
He was a diplomat's son
It was '81
He was a diplomat's son
It was '81
Dressed in white
With my car keys hidden in the kitchen
I could sleep
Wherever I lay my head
And the sight
Of your two shoes hidden in the bathtub
Let me know
That I shouldn't give up just yet.
Cause I'm gonna take it from Simon and then
I'm gonna take it behind them
if I ever had a chance it's now then but
I never had the feelin' I could offer that to you.
To offer it to you would be cruel
When all I want to do is use, use you.
He was a diplomat's son
It was '81
He was a diplomat's son
It was '81
That night I smoked a joint
With my best friend
We found ourselves in bed
When I woke up, he was gone
He was a diplomat's son
It was '81
He was a diplomat's son
It was '81
And that night
When the moon glows yellow in the riptide
I can't feel
Any traces of that other place.
And that night
When the moon comes racin' off the river
There's a car
All black with diplomatic plates.
