Dem's Good

It's a clear night

How are you tonight

Its a bone white

Smile of a night

There are chimes

That chill my bones



I know you don't know

Which way i will go

When i cross that line

Fosberry flop across that line



I once was one of you

I know m'heart is heavy

I know m'thoughts is blue

I know the light will be shining all night

Bells will be ringing dark and true

M' bells will be ringing dark and true



I feel like its been raining

I feel m'bones peelin paint

I know the red will be turnin twords the gold

All my warmth will be cold

All m'dark hair will be old



I see my fathers face

Standing in my fathers skin

See m'fathers old and ugly shadow

Down at the bottom of my pen

Heart of gold growing dim

Spent my whole paycheck

On the goddamn rent

And much more i can piss and moan about

Gonna piss and moan right outta here



Spent the whole damn day

In the goddamn house

Ain't much more i ramble on about

Ramble right on out here



Say you don't know

Where yer money goes

(lincoln, jackson, franklin)

I see yer (abraham, andrew, benjamin)

Wish i had me some of those



Spent my whole damn wad

On food and pot

Ain't much more that i have got

Gonna get it and get out of here



Yoda lay hee yodaoda lay hee yodaooo lay hee hee hee

I used to get hungry, used to get perfumed

Used to get weak kneed when i'd play

Used to get hogtied, used to get sanctified

Used to get whiskey (scotch) and i'd say

Used to get a liar, used to get sanctified

Used to be jesuslike in my actions

Used to be harmonius, i used to pray to the ground

Used to pass judgement all around



I got a sweet little love in my heart

I've lived long enough to see the dead horse

I've lived long enough to cross swamps at night

I've lived long enough to chase a rat

I've lived long enough to take a jet ride



If you see me on an airplane

Just make sure and get out of my way



I lived long enough to know the sun will drop

And you ought to leave it lie

To see the dying of the pines



I've lived long enough to kill my first love

I've lived long enough to break in and do harm

I've lived long enough to fly an airplane

I've lived long enough to break a machine



If you see me on an airplane

Just make sure and get out of my way



I lived long enough to know the sun will drop

And you ought to leave it lie

To see the dying of the pines

Sadness cost you bottles o beer

Shiney things don't get it

She waits and waits full of boring tears

Waiting for the money

And she waits a long time



Loneliness is a bitch

Wealth won't save yer soul

She smells fish and boring brides

Crying for the money

She cries a long time



Don't wanna know where they get the money

Don't wanna know where they keep the money



Brokeness is a finer place

Pot in the indian box

She pulls her breast away from her chest

Screams - screams fer money

And she screams a long time

There's a spend o time

Disconnected on yer line

We stay up all day

Just like the sun



Everybody will go crazy

When the moon messes up

You bought the last bottle last time, remember?



I don't need no doctor

Fer all this blood

We sleep all day

Like coins in the mud



Ain't much t'this stuff when you look into it

No way to see the roots before you chew it

The web before you walk into it



Roll the glue in balls

Dead spiders and dead skin

Lover in the hole

Musics in the bowl



U balt th' las baltle las tam

Amember?

Oh trampled by the sun

Oh sexless for days

Oh and i sweat gardenias

Oh sexless for days

I may be under valour's feet

I'm not scared to be a coward

Unless i'm drunk and missing for days

Got guts of crystal

That never saw the sun

Oh i'll consider superstition

And the reason for apollo

Sexless for days

Trampled by the sun
