You take these sticks and stones
|
and apply what you have learned
|
but you ain't got no water
|
so you let that motherfucker burn
|
|
Yea it smoked up and it burned out
|
Like a graduation bonfire two miles from your house
|
and you had nowhere to go, so you came right back here
|
I couldn't find what you wanted, so you slapped me in the face and spilled my beer
|
|
and when the mess dried up you came up singing,
|
|
Let us drink from the hourglass
|
We can make time stop
|
Watch from the window upstairs
|
While they all kick rocks
|
|
and I miss smoking in the fall
|
and pissin' on that gas station wall
|
What's a law? What's a fire? What's a river?
|
We jumped over them all
|
|
but I guess my legs got tired and my teeth got long
|
|
So take a sip from the hourglass
|
We can make time stop
|
Watch from the window upstairs
|
While they all kick rocks
|
|
I tried to write you a passage
|
but you're holdin' out for the flick
|
Wait outside by the exit
|
When they don't let you in
|
|
So we can drink from the hourglass
|
We can make time stop
|
Watch from the window upstairs
|
While they all kick rocks
|
