Ive said "im sorry", by now, at least once to j____"

She says, "ive forgotten what Im supposed to do

And it slips my mind what Im supposed to say?

Im getting older and older and older

And always a little farther out of the way

In august and everything after, you get a little ____



I stumbled into washington square just as the sun b____

I walked across the lawn to the cathedral

And lay down in the shadow of st. ___

Im just one of three late model children waiting for the king

But there aint no sign of elvis in san fransisco

Its just me, and Im playing this rock and roll thing

She wants to be just like me

I want every damn thing I can see.

One day youre daddys little angel,

Next day youre everything he wanted you to be

They dress you up in white satin

And they give you your very own pair of wings

In august and everything after, Im after everything.
