    The ponies run, the girls are young,
    The odds are there to beat.
    You win a while, and then it’s done –
    Your little winning streak.
    And summoned now to deal
    With your invincible defeat,
    You live your life as if it’s real,
    A Thousand Kisses Deep.

    I’m turning tricks, I’m getting fixed,
    I’m back on Boogie Street.
    You lose your grip, and then you slip
    Into the Masterpiece.
    And maybe I had miles to drive,
    And promises to keep:
    You ditch it all to stay alive,
    A Thousand Kisses Deep.

    And sometimes when the night is slow,
    The wretched and the meek,
    We gather up our hearts and go,
    A Thousand Kisses Deep.

    Confined to sex, we pressed against
    The limits of the sea:
    I saw there were no oceans left
    For scavengers like me.
    I made it to the forward deck.
    I blessed our remnant fleet –
    And then consented to be wrecked,
    A Thousand Kisses Deep.

    I’m turning tricks, I’m getting fixed,
    I’m back on Boogie Street.
    I guess they won’t exchange the gifts
    That you were meant to keep.
    And quiet is the thought of you,
    The file on you complete,
    Except what we forgot to do,
    A Thousand Kisses Deep.

    And sometimes when the night is slow,
    The wretched and the meek,
    We gather up our hearts and go,
    A Thousand Kisses Deep.

    The ponies run, the girls are young,
    The odds are there to beat . . .
