Lyrics
Well I came home at three
Cause I'm a rock and roller
I made a cup of tea
Cause I'm a little older
I let the water run
At least a half an hour
I get my washing done
I slipped into the shower
I gotta keep it clean
I gotta keep my face clean
After I apologize to my imaginary
Friend with the sleepy eyes
For killing her canary
I left the oven on
To let the real sun in
The heat was deafening
I felt my make-up running
I gotta keep it clean
I gotta keep my face clean
When I climbed into bed
The moon was fast a sleeping
and just above my head
A pair of angels sweeping
They swept around my mouth
They swept in secret places
They swept away the dust
They swept away all traces.
I gotta keep it clean
I gotta keep my face clean...
