Album | The Big Dirty |
I tied the devil to the tracks(Can you hear the train coming?) | |
I served him papers with a seal from the governor | |
The spoiler throwing voices | |
The vapors that they built this city on | |
But he don't write much for me anymore | |
When we keep hell in our hearts | |
We make no excuse for our genius | |
So what's my excuse now that hell has abandoned me? | |
I enticed the devil out with a bottle | |
But maybe it was he who lured me out instead | |
When we slept in penitent beds | |
We awoke in the loving arms of attrition | |
So what's my excuse now that hell isn't courting me? | |
Give me the strength to be widowed | |
Now that the honeymoon's over | |
Grant me the privileges saved for the sailors | |
Condemned with you all | |
Goddamn you all | |
Condemned with you all | |
Goddamn you all | |
I marched across the muddied stream | |
Illuminated from beneath | |
And the lock was picked with the church's key | |
We found on the belt of the veteran | |
And to open bar tabs in the taverns | |
Assembled in levels by the damned and fanatic for me | |
We never loved ourselves so well | |
As when we lusted after another | |
We hummed along to electric guitars | |
And the standard, whoa oh oh oh's | |
And we drank each other under the covers | |
I eased the devil back with the throttle' | |
Cause I'd rather live my life in regret than not take part in it | |
Ooh, if the devil don't mind, well it's alright with me | |
So what do | |
I do when the devil don't notice me? | |
Give me the strength to be widowed | |
Now that the honeymoon's over | |
Grant me the privileges saved for the sailors | |
Condemned with you all | |
Goddamn you all | |
Condemned with you all | |
Goddamn you all | |
And in my 27th year | |
I was dragged kicking and screaming into light | |
And I looked at | |
God in the face and | |
I saidI said, “ | |
God”, I said, | |
I said [Incomprehensible] | |
I tied the devil to the tracks | |
Can you hear the train coming? | |
And I tied the tracks in a lover's knot | |
Around the finger of a beautiful girl | |
I'll keep hell, | |
I'll keep hell | |
I'll keep hell if hell will have me | |
I'll keep hell, | |
I'll keep hell | |
I'll keep hell if hell will have me |
I tied the devil to the tracks Can you hear the train coming? | |
I served him papers with a seal from the governor | |
The spoiler throwing voices | |
The vapors that they built this city on | |
But he don' t write much for me anymore | |
