Little girl playin' with the moonlight 
Shine it on me, shine it on me 
There's a cloud over my light and its troubling me, troubling me 
Such a world, such an invitation 
Come as you are, come as you are 
Subject to change, but we'll try not to leave any scars 
 
[CHORUS:] 
Washable ink, if you think it stinks you can cry it away 
They don't want to hear your sad story today 
Everybody's busy whoever they are 
Washable ink, put it in the sink if you've had enough 
But if you're on the brink of the usual stuff 
Wait 'til it rains and give it away 
 
Little girl, they just want to train you 
To keep them amused, to keep them amused 
They don't know, you got your match to the end of that fuse 
Such a life, such a long vacation 
A tourist parade, man its a tourist parade 
I'm going to sleep, wake me up when you've got it made 
 
REPEAT [CHORUS:]
