    Sold Out

lyrics

And, just on the off chance that
There is no patron saint for never finishing a book
Then at least you and I will have
The undying pity of one another.

It takes two seconds to go from
Hungry to wondering how much you can get
For letting them use your mouth as a birdbath.


And, just on the off chance that there is
No patron saint for letting them use your mouth as a birdbath…

Lame, dumb, penny-hole the only useful head I see
On you can take the water out of wine,
Can make the rent correct a million times.

Lame, dumb, penny-hole,
The only useful face I see on you
Is crushed beneath the weight
Of laughter of a million averted eyes.

Fair enough the ostrich is deep and waiting
Faithful for the unmanned 'bgaw'
Gaining color as a relevant Tayone is gracefully to pass
The untrained desire to book it stuck

Inside children to eat
The envelope is full of peanut butter-
Peanut and butter- peanut and butter.


And, just on the off chance that there is
No patron saint for letting them use your mouth as a birdbath…

Lame, dumb, penny-hole, the only useful head I see on you
Can take the water out of wine,
Can make the rent correct a million times…

The only useful face I see on you
Is crushed beneath the weight
Of laughter of a million averted eyes…
And, just on the off chance that

There is no patron saint for never finishing a book
Then at least you and I will have
The undying pity of
One another.

msms are still sick. Hearts are frail. This body is a complex project. I don't want to work. I wish I never had to.
