Lyrics

[00:01.02] I was a quick-wit boy
[00:05.67] Diving too deep for coins
[00:10.78] All of your street light eyes
[00:15.30] Wide on my plastic toys
[00:20.27] Then when the cops closed the fair
[00:24.81] I cut my long baby hair
[00:29.59] Stole me a dog-eared map
[00:34.23] And called for you everywhere
[00:40.13] Have I found you?
[00:46.10] Flightless bird, jealous, weeping
[01:01.22] Or lost you?
[01:06.49] American mouth
[01:11.61] Big pill looming
[01:21.94] Now I'm a fat house cat
[01:27.03] Nursing my sore blunt tongue
[01:31.95] Watching the warm poison rats
[01:36.90] Curl through the wide fence cracks
[01:42.11] Pissing on magazine photos
[01:48.30] Those fishing lures thrown in the cold and clean
[01:57.54] Blood of Christ mountain stream
[02:03.17] Have I found you?
[02:09.48] Flightless bird, grounded, bleeding
[02:25.80] Or lost you?
[02:30.32] American mouth
[02:35.65] Big pill, stuck going down
