Doug and the Slugs Slugcology Chinatown Calculation Chinatown Calculation It ain't easy watchin' 6 years slipping through my picket gate. Like some wounded dog escapin' through the hole in the kennel fence The water's boiling, poached eggs waiting The toast I notice - still on the plate The queen of diamonds lying face down Your hidden message makes no sense Whoever the new mystery man is I've got to admit - he knows his business You're reading me now From the right to the left And it's coming out just the way you might expect Chinatown Calculation. That's cool with no regrets. The city seems so cold t'night and I'm fighting the feeling that something's been lost Cynical friends got their cynical bends Their dialogue's on a single track They say I'm sad 'cause the rube went walkin' That's the price .. don't they know love costs? Sometimes money but mostly the moments .. That seem so much a part of the pact Chorus It ain't easy watchin' 6 years slipping through my picket gate Like some wounded dog escapin' through the hole in the kennel fence I never saw that cold equation algebra behind your face That wrote me off as a bad transaction Your abacus spoke deadly sense |
