I was standing in the lobby Counting all the ladies Passing the palm trees I was taking chances Not to make them nervous Ladies are my business The know that they can trust me I forgive them instantly I am the absent minded priest Ladies have their problems Living on a space stage Acting out a new rage The battle of the sexes It's just the same in Egypt It's just the same in Texas It starts in the heart Then it ends in sin Nothing's really changed Even east of east of Eden
