lyrics

COUNTRY SONG, OR, ANOTHER NIGHT AT MCGARVEY'S

Joker’s on the rise, he’s got a bad tattoo
and it comes as no surprise he’s leaving with you
You always break my bones and send me home alone

And I don’t know what to think or do
All these spit covered words I sing to you
All the “I Love You”s and “Don’t Go”s end up on the ground

If you check your watch maybe it’s time to go
But I’ll miss all the symmetry, all the fallen leaves
All the swollen tongues, all the smoker’s lungs
and in the middle of the fumes there’s you.

Now the debt collectors, they call all day
So I divide my bucks, I pay and I pay
til I can’t pay no more - gonna find the happy hunting grounds

And the world’s on fire, it’s the end of days
the way Hannity talks my soul won’t be saved
so I’ll just go online and stare at a thousand screens.

If you check your watch maybe it’s time to go
But I’ll miss all the symmetry, all the fallen leaves
All the swollen tongues, all the smoker’s lungs
and in the middle of the fumes there’s you.
and in the middle of the fumes there’s you.
