Just once I'd like to be useful
Without feeling used
Every town brings the same sadness
What started out with sights to see
Now, could never bring such a thing

Within the walls of each private room
She laid the stones to build her tomb
Underneath the cheap perfume
No cry to be heard at that volume
Pulls off the g-string. Shame resume.
Too many drugs to think
Too many desirable things
Have turned her into a machine
On the stage. Insert money.

Time did not make her what it promised
Plastered on each ad
Traveling towns to be the feature
What happened to that beautiful creature?
And all the glamour, all the splendor
Each cocktail with each ring betrayed bachelor
When no one's around, she looks confused
She said just once I'd like to be useful
Without feeling used
She prepares herself
For when they surround
No cognizance is found
