(Thou Without) Partner

Nighttime's the right time to pull all the dimes from your pocket
 Nighttime's the right time to climb on the rocket
 Nighttime's the right time to pull your shoulder out of its socket
 Nighttime's the right time to learn a new language
 Cosmonauts flying, cosmonauts dying
 You picked a fine time to tell me it was time to find me a new wife
 You picked a fine way to tell me that today would be the last day
 When is the first day you'll repay the money that you owe me?
 A sisterly severance, a cutting of cookies, adios fraternos
 When will she run to me?
 When will she come to me?
 O buenos dias
 O buenas noches
 No mercy you have shown me
 How could a woman with so much to live for have so many children?
 When time came to call names she bolted and left me an unlabelled burden
 I'm bound to my time like cukes to a new brine, or brawn to an old one
 Besides I have no time to explain how I have been feeling
 Cosmonauts flying, cosmonauts dying
 Astronauts starving, astronauts leaving
 No more hospitality, no more hospitals at all
 When was the first time you realized the next time would be the last time?
