I tell tales tall as cliffs
|
You've got a lisp
|
Kid, those things are hard to miss
|
Like my cripple cough
|
All your weekends lost by the lake
|
Where you said I needn't be afraid
|
Of all those devils on the wall
|
That make a fella small
|
When he's feelin' brave
|
They take his wine away
|
There were posters on the wall
|
I swear my mother saw
|
That I'd been up all night, up all night
|
|
And you came well-equipped
|
With a gun on your hip
|
And some poison on your lips
|
But when we wake up in our makeup
|
We'll be clean
|
And we won't have nowhere to be
|
|
Oh, but I can't talk to you
|
The way I've wanted to
|
I've been tellin' lies
|
But I'll tell you the truth
|
Oh, I can't talk to you
|
The way I've wanted to
|
I've been tellin' lies
|
But I'll tell you the truth
|
|
Darling, I'm tired
|
And I should be leaving, leaving
|
You know I'm tired
|
And I should be leaving, leaving tonight
|
|
Darling, I'm tired
|
And I should be leaving, leaving
|
You know I'm tired
|
And I should be leaving
|
|
And you'll hang like the rest
|
We'll leave a noose on the attorney's desk
|
And take to the streets
|
Chant like an army
|
And doctor up this disease
|
