Currency Crisis

Everybody's land is what they make it, and now I find myself with a thousand sermons to show them every time I turn another page on Our Amazing Presents—formerly and wrongly thought to be a creation!

Bed, Bath — But Not — Beyond:

oh the heat was in there and cops everywhere you looked
there wasn't a lot to the break that you got you know you took

and i remember wonderin' where you've been
the night spanish eddie cashed it in

the night spanish eddie cashed it in
they were playin' `desolation row' on the radio
the night spanish eddie fell from grace
there was amazement on his face
oh the night that eddie bailed, sanity prevailed

it was june or july when the heat from above burnt down
it was famine or drought when the brothers ran out
of skyy* uptown and we would mix in vicks with lemon gin
the night spanish eddie cashed it in

the night spanish eddie cashed it in
they were playin' `desolation row' on the radio
the night spanish eddie made front page
his revolution came of age
we wrote `surrender' on the wall
the night he took the fall

i heard someone say, `he's tryin' to fly'
like eddie used to say, `we'll do when we die'

	~

i heard someone turned you for a fin
the night spanish eddie cashed it in

the night spanish eddie cashed it in
they were playin' `desolation row' on the radio 

the night spanish eddie fell from grace
there was amazement on his face
on the night that eddie bailed, sanity prevailed

the night spanish eddie cashed it in
they was playin' `desolation row' on the radio 

the night spanish eddie cashed it in
they was playin' `desolation row' on that radio 

the night spanish eddie cashed it in
they was playin' `desolation row' on that radio

After all that, Eddie and she lived a long life together in the wonders of universal bliss—all on a $5 down payment!
