作词 : | |
Make a dent in the shovel, run the mud through a sieve | |
Paste your hopes on a windmill blade, plant it up on the hill | |
Pencil sharpened with a putty knife, pretty girl as a pretty nun | |
Maybe you wake and think, this is great, | |
I just want somewhere to run | |
The walls blend into ceilings and faces disappear | |
Never enough time to think it out, only time to forget | |
I'm hereThe bill is on the table but | |
I've got no coins for pay | |
A beer half circle around her name, what the hell did she say? | |
The wise are playing tether ball and the ball's eyes look like mine | |
Rolling around on the end of the cord, | |
I can't make up for down | |
I'm a stream lined engine with a cog chipped out of the wheel | |
I remember a dirty joke or two but | |
I can't remember the feel | |
I remember a dirty joke or two but | |
I can't remember the feel | |
Too much time alone | |
I spend, a miser with a nickel worn | |
Starving like a mother but | |
I can't let go | |
I'll spit the hours 'cross the room and | |
I'll kick 'em out the door | |
Hell, you can have them, just another thing | |
I've got no use for | |
And it's funny that this comes out dark, it's not that bad | |
There's still a sparkle, silver in my cavity that plays music in the winter | |
I've a cardboard box of batteries hidden in a tire swing | |
A miner's hat with a light on top and a handful of wedding rings | |
A miner's hat with a light on top and a handful of wedding rings |
