Hot Seat Lyrics - Singles - Vic Chesnutt

Ventolin and vivarin and primatine 

Secret tequila shots and a patch of morphine 

In the morning and in the throes 

What a great day to come out of a coma 

I've been in the hot seat sweating it out 

Oh sweating it out 

Sweating it out 

Sweating it out 

I touch the telephone it falls away 

I think they call it empathy 

But not this way 

I put my lips on the sound hole 

My tongue is finally warming 

But my brain is charcoal

I've been in the hot seat sweating it out 

Oh sweating it out 

Sweating it out 

Sweating it out 

Not much later, fall out of favor 

Pretty soon 

I know i'll do 

Precisely what i wanted not to do 

Maybe i slipped up 

And learned a lesson 

To work my proclivity towards second guessing 

I was too naive and enthusiastic 

To keep my trap shut 

And my monkey in a motherfuckin' basket

I've been in the hot seat sweating it out 

Oh sweating it out 

Sweating it out 

Sweating it out
