The Mermaid

I’ve done everything in my power to file down my claws
White picket fence, cold showers cheap tricks get cheap applause
I used to swim out with the mermaid but now I got a schedule to keep
Yeah I could chase the mermaid but what if I got too deep
I didn’t come to get hurt
I came to get clean
Tried to go it alone
I got bored with the scene
What’s a poor boy to do
But share in the wealth
I wanna lasso the moon
Like Bathsheba saying treat yourself
Ain’t gonna treat you like you
Ain’t gonna treat you like you
Ain’t gonna treat you like you treat yourself
Ain’t gonna treat you like you
Ain’t gonna treat you like you
Ain’t gonna treat you like you
Bathsheba saying
So let’s kiss your daddy on his mouth and then we’ll total his car
I wanna go see Erik Bachman play and blowtorch the bar
I wanna swim out with the mermaid what’s the difference?
I can’t sleep
I’m gonna chase the mermaid and let her take me to the deep
I didn’t come to get hurt
I came to get clean
I tried to sing on my own
I get bored with the scene
What’s a white boy to do
Except to share in the guilt?
I wanna lasso the moon
Like Bathsheba saying treat yourself
Ain’t gonna treat you like you
Ain’t gonna treat you like you
Ain’t gonna treat you like you treat yourself
Ain’t gonna treat you like you
Ain’t gonna treat you like you
Ain’t gonna treat you like you
Bathsheba saying
Let’s not begin at the beginning it’s a boring place to start
Don’t wanna sing no flannel whiskey songs and try to make them art
I don’t need Bob Dylan’s blazer don’t need Jeff Tweedy’s hat
Ain’t after pussy or cash baby I’m trimming the fat
Ain’t gonna treat you like you
Ain’t gonna treat you like you
Ain’t gonna treat you like you, come on
Ain’t gonna treat you like you
Ain’t gonna treat you like you
Ain’t gonna treat you like you
Bathsheba saying treat yourself
