I’m looking for a girl with a washing machine And a room that’s cool and shady I’m looking for a girl with a shower and a bath Come on, baby, don’t look at me like that I’m looking for a girl with a washing machine I ain’t saying I ain’t saying I’m dirty and I ain’t saying I’m clean Oooh oooh I’m looking for a girl with a washing machine And a room that’s cool and shady I’m looking for a girl without plans for the night I ain’t saying I’m lonely but I could use come company I’m looking for a girl with a washing machine I ain’t saying I ain’t saying I’m dirty and I ain’t saying I’m clean Oooh oooh I bet you’ve got a washing machine I bet you ain’t got nothing to do And I’m just a boy who came into town I won’t let you down Oooh oooh

Monastery 03:20
How can you go to the monastery if it’s all dark outside How can you go to the monastery if it’s all dark outside How can you walk through the rain and snow Didn't you hear the warning on the radio? Just can’t walk to the monastery if it’s all dark outside How can you walk to the monastery if all the skies are grey How can you walk to the monastery if all the skies are grey All your friends got lost in the wood You must understand that it ain’t no good Just can’t walk to the monastery if all the skies are grey You didn’t wanna drink no beer today There's no excuse if you do it anyway Just don’t give a damn what your friends all say Cause you just can’t go if the skies are grey How can you walk through the world if you don’t even have a girl How can you walk through the world if you don’t even have a girl All your friends got girlfriends, too They’re making love so why not you You just can’t walk through the world if you don’t even have a girl How can you pray to God if you don’t even know his name How can you pray to God if you don’t even know his name God might have had enough of it And left the world in tons of shit Just can’t pray to God if you don’t even know his name God’s just letting it slip and slide The girls are out with the boys tonight And the world is rough and the world is wide And you just can’t go if it’s dark outside

Deal me a card I’ll take what I get Deal me a sky that’s shiny and wet Deal me a field with horses that run A place to take rest when all work is done A sound in my ear The singing of the whales Send me to sleep With wind in my sails The moon is a woman I painted at night To keep me awake till summer goes by A dream in the night With the ones that you love The firing of rifles And you’ll never wake up I’ll be right here and follow your plan And trust in the things I don’t understand
