Gluefoot Lyrics - Vic Chesnutt

Cross my heart and cross my eyes 

Stick a needle in my thigh 

Drop kick my unscrewed lid 

And fiddle fiddle fiddle fiddle fiddle with what's inside 

A rusty mass of machinations 

Still I'm vying for the right vaccination 

I make a masterful selection like Louis Pasteur 

Certain I've found at least a temporary cure 

If there's one thing I've learned in this chemical world 

It's very very very very very little is pure

My gluefoot sticks, I wrestle with it 

I try to skedaddle but my gluefoot is fixed 

If they'd give me a shovel in this communication age 

Maybe I'd have kept my mouth shut and done something today 

I want to blame democracy and it's inherent lies 

I want to blame my heritage for my leisurely demise

Everybody wants to wear the cleats 

Everybody wants to be Dominique 

I want to be someone separate from me 

I want to have a sustained feeling 

My gluefoot sticks, I wrestle with it 

I try to skidaddle but my gluefoot is fixed
