[Verse 1]
It feels like I'm living in a dream
With something missing in its tone
The same variation on a theme
It's time to learn to live alone
This torch I carry day and night
Is just one more cross I have to bear
Oh well, it's shed so little light
It says she's still out there somewhere

[Chorus]
Riff raff
Same tired old hard luck story
Riff raff
Same bait and switch
Riff raff
No guts, no blaze of glory
Riff raff
Ain't that a bitch

[Verse 2]
God knows the truth is I'm a mess
There's so many demons I can't tame
And if my mind won't let it rest
I only have myself to blame
[Chorus]
Riff raff
You know she saw you comin'
Riff raff
And here's the glitch
Riff raff
She left your motor runnin'
Riff raff
Ain't that a bitch

[Verse 3]
I used to think my luck would change
But that was then and this is now
I had the whole thing rearranged
But then I lost the thread somehow

[Chorus]
She's riff raff
Cuckoo kachoo, dear boy
Riff raff
Can't scratch that itch
Riff raff
Stomped on your pride and joy
Riff raff
Ain't that a bitch
