I was flicking through the channels on the tv |
|
On a sunday in milwaukee in the rain |
|
Trying to piece together conversations |
|
Trying to find out where to lay the blame |
|
But when it comes right down to it there's no use trying to pretend |
|
For when it gets right down to it there's no one here that's left to blame |
|
Blame it on me, you can blame it on me |
|
We're just sugar mice in the rain |
|
I heard sinatra calling me through the floorboards |
|
Where you pay a quarter for a partnership in rhyme |
|
To the jukebox crying in the corner |
|
While the waitress is counting out the time |
|
For when it comes right down to it there's no use trying to pretend |
|
For when it gets right down to it there's no one really left to blame |
|
Blame it on me, you can blame it on me |
|
We're just sugar mice in the rain |
|
'cause i know what i feel, know what i want i know what i am |
|
Daddy took a raincheck |
|
Cos i know what i want, know what i feel i know what i need |
|
Daddy took a raincheck, your daddy took a raincheck |
|
Ain't no one in here that's left to blame but me |
|
Blame it on me, blame it on me |
|
Well the toughest thing that i ever did was talk to the kids on the phone |
|
When i heard them asking questions i knew that that you were all alone |
|
Can't you understand that the government left me out of work |
|
I just couldn't stand the looks on their faces saying, "what a jerk" |
|
So if you want my address it's number one at the end of the bar |
|
Where i sit with the broken angels clutching at straws and nursing our scars |
|
Blame it on me, blame it on me |
|
Sugar mice in the rain |
|
Your daddy took a raincheck, your daddy took a raincheck |
