menfolks just don't understand. sympathy for a wretch like me. I'm a handle to wind the tongue. just a bitch in heat. . menfolks just can't even see. my fifty puppies and tits to my knees.
Left me in the mountains. Left me standing in the rain. Jumping over icebergs. Wanna see that boy again. It's a cryin' shame. He only made it harder. Two neat little pockets of grief.
Damn girl's gone crazy. All these good-looking blues. Banshees with bad skin. Coming home to roost. Boxed into flying. Scratching out birds. Fed a diet of sharp knives.
I'm standing barefoot. Lost in the tall grass. A place so quiet. It's as if I were never born. The clouds are leaving. Beneath the setting sun. Watch out for her.
Set my heart strings strummin'. Resonate in me. Stars burst diamond sockets. Sounding of the sea. Songbird on my shoulder. Peaceful when I sleep. Be with me as I grow older.
Sunday morning. Restless morning. I have floated forever. In the shadow. Sleepless shadow. I have fallen far below. Out of focus. Sickly focus. Breathless inbetween hours.
i'm sitting here. alone. i'm pitching a tent like a camper's home. all i've got tonight, are dirty feet and giggles. and Rover, and this jar of Jif. and i grab a butter knife.
Like the times that I swore. Like the wine that I poured. Like a blinding fact. You can't ignore. . Like the motion. That delivers you forward. 'Til you can't go back.
Let me out. I'm a cloud. I can't live here anymore. Turn the sky inside out. I can't live here anymore. Fish for nails in a drought. I can't live here anymore.
It is long gone. This right went wrong. Stop your cryin child. Diamonds and stones. My skin my bones. Stop your cryin child. . 'Cause the time has been and gone.
Damn you dirty bird. Put out the fire now. It's all said and done. Do I walk away or run. . What went wrong, what went wrong. Shame on, shame on. . Damn you filthy crow.
Them trashy types just outta milk teeth. Keep bluffin' me with their big girly eyes. Them trashy types them college girls. Don't know squat 'bout guys like me.
Dead dreams dropping off the heart. Like leaves in a dry season. Dead dreams dropping off the heart. Like leaves in a dry season. . How long do I take it.
Wake up girl what's wrong with you blood. Bones black blue - blood bones black blue. All these things I do for you. All these things I do for you. All these things I do for you.
Must have been the devil who changed my mind. Must have been the wind blowing not me crying. Half the joy of icaving was the space I left behind. Now I'm back, angelheaded holloweyed.
It's gonna. Swallow me whole. The ground'll open up. And in I'll fall. Down down down. Mama set me up with a fine young thing. And he was gonna buy me everything.
If you receive an e-mail with a subject of "badtimes",. Delete it immediately. Without reading it. this is the most dangerous e-mail virus yet.. . It will re-write your hard drive. not only that, but it will.
Anybody's better than nobody. 'Cause one's never better than two. Anybody's better than nobody. For me and my barefoot blues. . I'm spending money like water.
Silence please now. I don't want a word. Got deep in trouble. And my hands got burnt. . Ain't nobody love me. That's how I got here. With pockets full of nothing.
I'm not talking anymore. All the skins of the words. Fell off in my hands. If I told you and showed you. You'd laugh. . I'm not trying anymore. All my good intentions.
