lyrics

Your mother told me to watch out for you,
she said you'd only bring me down.
I was begging licks and sleeping in my guitar case,
and you came around.
You handed me a tire iron,
I brushed my hair out of my face.
I still don't know why you came.
I don't know why you came.

[CHORUS]
I've never been awake for so long,
I'm wasting time.
If you're sitting here and waiting for a love song,
you can weep and cry.
But I'd never pen a verse about a woman so benign.

So, shoot the cow and brand the duck,
I couldn't find my head.
I had a hat to keep my nickels in,
but was swooping like the weeping dead.
Your cold, cold fingers moaned,
they were the antidote that broke the skin.
I still don't know what this is,
I don't know what this is.

[CHORUS]

Then a miraculous thing happened to me,
god ate me in my sleep.
I arched my back and I racked my bones,
but I woke up at your feet.
We make a lot of children cry, you know
you don't seem to really mind.
I still don't know where I am,
and I haven't got the time.

[CHORUS]

Curse the artist that made all this!
Curse him and his sinful hands!
In a little room I dream that I am
in my mother's arms again.
Or sleeping in my guitar bag,
or remembering how to pray.
It's not you, it's me. I just wish I knew
when there was something more to save.

[CHORUS]
