lyrics

Billy Joe we gotta go
gotta find a new piece of mind
take your time
and see all the signs on the way

Mary Jane, is that your name?
I did not mean to cause you any pain
and I feel rather largely to blame
for the way things are

Betty Sue what you gonna do?
killing yourself despite all you been through
maybe one day you'll have a clue
of how to go about it all

Its Names
making up all our lives
Its games
thats covering up all the lies
Well i can't do this anymore today
guess I'll pack up and go my way
and if you need me
just call my name.

Betty Brown, walking round town
loud as a train, but don't make no sounds
everybody just calls her a clown
(but dont ya know!?)
But (that) she's happy

Lazy Steve got everything he need
don't need no friends he just do as he please
living his life in a fantasy
of his own creation

well Billy Joe, what do ya know?
all these people, they come and they go
maybe one day, we'll all know
what it means

Its Names
making up all our lives
Its games
thats covering up all the lies
Well i can't do this anymore today
guess I'll pack up and go my way
and if you need me
just call my name.
