We make all sorts of friends that we’re sure of
We get beholden
All night downtown scraping around for some total devotion

This is the last stretch fawning and fetching
Through aisles of notions
You know what it means, it has to be seen as some total devotion

I read the want ads that work in your face
Baby I’m a carbon trace
Maybe there’s some things there’s no erasing

So this is the last step, famous sunk sunset
Through ozone and ocean
The boys down by the dock
The hands on the clock reach for your total devotion

If that’s what it takes
Praying for love with no breaks, with no breaks from above
It’s total devotion, total devotion
