[Intro]
[Waitress:] Hello, you want a cup of coffee?
[Trucker:] Hey, turn the fucking Juke Box down
[Waitress:] I'm sorry, would you like a cup of coffee?
Okay, you take cream and sugar? Sure
[Verse 1]
In truck stops and hamburger joints
In Cadillac limousines, in the company of has beens
And bent-backs
And sleeping forms, on pavement steps
In libraries and railways stations
In books and banks
In the pages of history
In suicidal cavalry attacks
[Chorus]
I recognize (Ooh)
Myself, in every stranger's eyes
[Verse 2]
And in wheelchairs, by monuments
Under tube trains and commuter accidents
In council care and county courts
At Easter fairs and seaside resorts
In drawing rooms and city morgues
In award-winning photographs, of life rafts on the China seas
In transit camps, under arc lamps
On unloading ramps, in faces blurred by rubber stamps
