Come With Me

                  Richards/Augie March

                  Where you gonna go from which you come
                  Save your face and all your grace and run, run
                  Maybe to your sisters, maybe to your mother's house
                  Maybe lying naked on your brand new boyfriend's couch

                  Maybe underground where the germs won't get you
                  Maybe to the hills where the dominoes won't hit you
                  When they fall

                  Where you gonna go when it rains
                  Where you gonna go when it petrifies and aches
                  Maybe to the circus
                  Maybe to the church
                  Maybe build your birdhouse from this fallen Yankee birch

                  Maybe to the ocean where the storm is raging nigh
                  Maybe to the desert where you can't afford to cry

                  Why don't you come with me?
                  Why don't you come with me?

                  Nah nah nah
                  Oo ooh ooh

                  Where you gonna go when I'm poor
                  Will you ever understand this song, this song
                  Let's go to the river, we can sink our bodies low
                  I can say what I have died to say
                  Ho hum, o hi, hi-ho

                  Maybe clown for president, pissing in the ditch
                  Maybe killer culture, maybe poison in the fridge

                  Maybe underground where the germs won't get you
                  Maybe to the hills where the dominoes won't hit you
                  When they fall into the ocean where the storm is raging nigh
                  Maybe to the desert where you can't afford to cry

                  Why don't you come with me, with me?
                  Why don't you come with me?
