Life Boat歌词

[00:33.66]Every time I open my mouth
[00:36.72]I take off my clothes
[00:39.72]I'm raw and frostbitten from
[00:42.85]being exposed
[00:45.47]I got red scabby hands
[00:48.47]and purple scabby feet
[00:51.47]And you can smell me coming from
[00:54.85]halfway down the street
[00:57.41]And I remember that old hotel had quite the smell
[01:07.59]where I'd go to use the phone
[01:10.16]Between the donut shop and the pizza parlor
[01:13.40]where I learned to live alone
[01:16.65]Sweet sixteen and smiling
[01:19.53]my way out of any jam
[01:22.78]Learning the ways of the world, oh my
[01:26.28]Learning the ways of man
[01:28.28]
[01:35.17]And I didn't really want a baby
[01:38.42]and I guess I had a choice
[01:41.36]But I just let it grow inside me
[01:44.99]this persistent little voice
[01:47.61]And I guess I got her off and running
[01:50.67]and run off is what she did
[01:53.99]And that's part of what I think about
[01:57.42]think about that kid
[02:04.05]
[02:06.05]now there's So nothing left to wish upon
[02:09.83]except for passing cars
[02:13.27]The cacophony of city lights
[02:16.34]is drowning out the stars
[02:18.90]This park bench is a life boat
[02:21.90]and the rest a big dark sea
[02:25.40]And I'm just gonna lie here until
[02:28.15]something comes and finds me
[02:30.68]
[02:38.49]Yeah I got this tired old face
[02:40.80]still grinning most of the time
[02:43.86]Just 'cause it don't have a better way
[02:46.80]to express what's on it's mind
[02:50.18]And I got this running monologue
[02:53.30]entertaining in it's outrage
[02:56.23]And I've got the air of an animal
[02:59.54]That's been living in a cage
[03:08.43]
[03:16.06]Every time I open my mouth
[03:19.06]I take off my clothes
[03:21.75]I'm raw and frostbitten from
[03:25.13]being exposed
[03:28.06]I got red scabby hands
[03:30.81]and purple scabby feet
[03:33.75]And you can smell me coming from
[03:37.25]halfway down the street
