| [00:31.76] |
Cause I lost my job two weeks before Christmas |
| [00:44.26] |
And I talked to Jesus at the sewer |
| [00:49.04] |
And the Pope said it was none of his God-damned business |
| [00:57.26] |
While the rain drank champagne |
| [01:01.84] |
My Estonian Archangel came and got me wasted |
| [01:09.91] |
Cause the sweetest kiss I ever got is the one I've never tasted |
| [01:22.36] |
Oh but they'll take their bonus pay to Molly McDonald, |
| [01:36.85] |
Neon lady, beauty is that which obeys, is bought or borrowed |
| [01:54.29] |
Cause my heart's become a crooked hotel full of rumors |
| [02:07.06] |
But it's I who pays the rent for these fingered-face out-of-tuners |
| [02:19.24] |
|
| [02:19.69] |
And I make 16 solid half hour friendships every evening |
| [02:32.50] |
Cause your queen of hearts who is half a stone |
| [02:34.99] |
And likes to laugh alone is always threatening you with leaving |
| [02:44.94] |
Oh but they play those token games on Willy Thompson |
| [02:59.67] |
And give a medal to replace the son of Mrs. Annie Johnson |
| [03:17.15] |
Cause they told me everybody's got to pay their dues |
| [03:22.03] |
And I explained that I had overpaid them |
| [03:30.02] |
|
| [03:30.17] |
So overdued I went to the company store |
| [03:34.99] |
And the clerk there said that they had just been invaded |
| [03:42.82] |
So I set sail in a teardrop and escaped beneath the doorsill |
| [03:55.68] |
Cause the smell of her perfume echoes in my head still |
| [04:21.61] |
Cause I see my people trying to drown the sun |
| [04:26.65] |
In weekends of whiskey sours |
| [04:34.62] |
Cause how many times can you wake up in this comic book |
| [04:42.09] |
And plant flowers? |
