Nothing But The Shell Tab

by Steve Wynn


Taken from the album "My Midnight"


                              
Finally stashed away the vices
                                     
Like a shield against the coming crisis
                                    
See what drops and see what rises
                                    
Watch out for the falling prices

[Chorus:]
                                
Stripped away so you could hardly tell
                          
Leaving nothing but the shell

      
Remember when she was a comer
Brighter but a little dumber
Something went down late last summer
I don't suppose you have her number

Never made it to the coda
The CIA destroyed the folder
Brighter but a little older
A teleprompter and a soda

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
Neil Young and Crazy Horse
A victim of a bad divorce
Take a little from the source
