Bitter Pill Lyrics - And The Horse They Rode In On - Soul Asylum

At the end of the track is a two bit shack 

When you die, that's where you go 

Down the lines, up from this pit at the end of your rainbow 

That's one too many flights of stairs 

One more stair and almost there 

One more dose close 

One [Incomprehensible] to the bottom of the stairs 

One more unholy ghost 

Keep coming back to haunt you 

Got no place left to go 

Meet me on the [Incomprehensible] 

And they'll strip your car to the bone 

We did a scene, checked out a gown 

The justice started laughing 

[Incomprehensible] remove their heads 

I guess that's what you get for laughing 

One last laugh and lived to tell 

One more pomp and circumstance 

One more fool to follow 

Another finger down my throat 

It's a bitter pill to swallow 

So much later coming 

It's moving much too slow 

Who it is asleep at the wheel 

I don't want to know 

Just around the corner there's 

Somebody there to take you there 

Don't worry child you're sure to be scared 

One more drink before I go 

One last good luck kiss 

One less thing to call my own 

That's one more thing I miss 

[Incomprehensible] 

Took the world by storm 

Most of 'em either in a dark jail 

Or wishing they had never been born 

Just around the corner there's 

One more pomp and circumstance 

One more fool to follow 

Another finger down my throat 

That's a bitter pill to swallow
