The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Lisa likes brandy
And the way it hits her lips
She's a rock 'n' roll survivor
With pendulum hips
She's got deep brown eyes
That've seen it all
Working at a nightclub
That was called the avenue
The bar man used to call her
Little Lisa Looney Tunes
She went down on almost anyone
From the hard time living 'til the chelsea days
From when her hair was sweet blonde
'Til the day it turned gray
She said
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N
You've got more than money and sense, my friend
You've got heart
And you're goin' your own way
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N
What you don't have now will come back again
You've got heart
And you're goin' your own way
Some people wear their history
Like a map on their face
And Joey was an artist just living out of case
But his best work was his letters home
His standard works of fiction
About imaginary success
The chorus girls in neon
Were his closest things to friends
But to a writer, the truth is no big deal
From the hard time living to the sleepless nights
And the black and blue body
From the weekend fights
He'd say
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N
You've got more than money and sense, my friend
You've got heart
And you're goin' your own way
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N
What you don't have now will come back again
You've got heart
And you're goin' your own way
On my last night on earth
I won't look to the sky
Just breathe in the air and blink in the light
On my last night on earth
I'll pay a high price
To have no regrets
And be done with my life
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N
You've got more than money and sense, my friend
You've got heart
And you're goin' your own way
L.I.F.E.G.O.E.S.O.N
What you don't have now will come back again
You've got heart
And you're goin' your own way
