I think i'll go home and mull this over Before i cram it down my throat At long last it's crashed, it's colossal mass Has broken up into bits in my moat.
Lift the mattress off the floor Walk the cramps off Go meander in the cold Hail to your dark skin Hiding the fact you're dead again Undeneath the power lines seeking shade Far above our heads are the icy heights that contain all reason
It's a luscious mix of words and tricks That let us bet when you know we should fold On rocks i dreamt of where we'd stepped And of the whole mess of roads we're now on.
Hold your glass up, hold it in Never betray the way you've always known it is. One day i'll be wondering how I got so old just wondering how I never got cold wearing nothing in the snow.
This is way beyond my remote concern Of being condescending
All these squawking birds won't quit. Building nothing, laying bricks.
Gold teeth and a curse for this town were all in my mouth. Only, i don't know how they got out, dear. Turn me back into the pet that i was when we met. I was happier then with no mind-set.
And if you'd 'a took to me like A gull takes to the wind. Well, i'd 'a jumped from my tree And i'd a danced like the king of the eyesores And the rest of our lives would 'a fared well.
New slang when you notice the stripes, the dirt in your fries. Hope it's right when you die, old and bony.
Dawn breaks like a bull through the hall, Never should have called But my head's to the wall and i'm lonely.
And if you'd 'a took to me like A gull takes to the wind. Well, i'd 'a jumped from my tree And i'd a danced like the kind of the eyesores And the rest of our lives would 'a fared well.
God speed all the bakers at dawn may they all cut their thumbs, And bleed into their buns 'till they melt away.
I'm looking in on the good life i might be doomed never to find. Without a trust or flaming fields am i too dumb to refine? And if you'd 'a took to me like Well i'd a danced like the queen of the eyesores And the rest of our lives would 'a fared well.
