Reprobates Resume Lyrics - Inches - Les Savy Fav

Blessed be the doctor 

Blessed be the nurse. 

Blessed be the coachman 

Who put me in the hearse. 

Blessed be the blessings and 

Blessed be the curse. 

Rattled from the sediment 

Old bones around the settlement. 

Tell who passed out the medicine 

The dose was much too strong. 

He goes to bed bereft and berated 

And rests his head in the hands of 

The over rated. 

Sweating bullets in the faculty lounge, 

Sensing treason they're not waiting around; 

On the first bus out of the town 

They're playing movies that they've already seen. 

The jewelry advances as the gums recede, 

The devil goes out dancing on the angels preceived needs, 

Please go easy on me. 

Cheap sex with a dicount broker- 

Cop's walkie-talkie squawks breaker-breaker. 

"We got to take her down to the station 

She says that that broker broke her off." 

Read the text at the ticker tape parade- 

The subtext is that someone's getting paid off. 

Check the checks at the ticker tape parade- 

Pay stubs of the people who've been laid off. 

Insurance can't cover what the world exposed- 

Open nerves. 

Touching toes to stretch, 

The A.C. made us retch. 

Can you conceive of 

Working for the 

Emperor's new clothes? 

Please go easy on me.
