lyrics

It's not my style to say what's true
But you did ask, you said “How are you?”
If you're gonna be that direct
There's some rough and smooth you must expect
'Bout how I feel, was I too real at this juncture?
I just jumped your train, if it's all the same

You can run away, you can stay and bask
In the light of my sun and the warmth of my flask
You can tell me to go to hell but, well, you did ask
How I feel, I won't make a meal of the answer
No cliches, let's see if honesty pays

I know my sofa bed will drop dead of frustration
Pillows will ache for your sweet head and a little variation
Do these things ever last?

Life's a gas, you did ask,
I grazed on your grass, you did ask
Into my life you came to pass
From out my life you'll come to pass
You did ask

I shot the lock off the vault, I put the axe to the cask
And out it all gushes, well, you did ask
How I feel, was I too real at this juncture?
Cos I've just jumped your train, I can't explain

Someone's got to level with you
Or what the devil will you do?
Someone's gotta lay it straight
Someone not prepared to provaricate

It's not my style to say what's true
But you did ask, you said “How are you?”
I don't mean to set a difficult task
But, baby, it's back at you but you did ask me
How I feel, was I too real like a puncture?
Cos I just broke your chain
You ain't no Alice Coltrane, girl
I don't mean to tell you anything
That would tie me up in long and binding string
Bits of string and chains of gold
Hey, baby, you've been told.
