DEAD END

         Once I had a close friend
         I knew him for quite a while
         He seemed all right to me
         We had this deal together
         Tied up my money and time
         And then he went away
         Taking all that was mine

         (chorus)
         Oh, well, things crumble to an end
         Hell, we all die in the end
         Die in the end

         Once it was fun to worry
         About who was in control
         Could look into the future
         But now it don't seem right
         Passion is filling the air
         Profits and better than life
         And things are harder to beat

         (chorus)

         It's a dead end
         Dead end
         Dead end

         Once I had a lover
         I knew her for quite a while
         She seemed alright to me
         But then she was gone
         She took my lovin' and my time
         Taking all that was mine
         And leaving me far behind

         (chorus)

         It's a dead end
         Dead end
         Dead end
