A Penny for the Band - Justin Rutledge
Another Shirley Temple
Another Cain and Abel
There's nothing out the window
And nothing on the table
This life is like a set list
Scrawled across the nation
If I miss you at the soundcheck
I'll see you at the station
There's a beast inside of me
And he's not bad company
But he speaks in tongues
I can never understand
He says it's one more show
And a penny for the band
Keep everybody dancing
Keep everybody spending
I know I'm not a good man
But I can keep pretending
You're leaning in the doorway
Your dress is like a dark vale
But I'm not going your way
I'm going back to Parkdale
With a bottle of Burgundy
Where she waits on the balcony
With a northern wish
And a daisy in her hand
To send me all her love
And a penny for the band
There's a beast inside of me
And I miss my family
All these pages and
These stages made of sand
Still it's one more show
And a penny for the band
One more show and a penny for the band
