Handcuffed To A Fence In Mississippi |
I’m handcuffed to a fence in Mississippi |
My girlfriend blows a boozy good-bye kiss |
I see flying squirrels and nightmares of stigmata |
Then awakening to find my Trans-Am gone |
Still, I’m feeling pretty good about the future |
Yeah, everything is peaches but the cream |
I’m handcuffed to a fence in Mississippi |
Where things is always better than they seem |
Things is always better than they seem |
I see the guitar that my cousin played in prison |
Floating with the tv in the swimming pool |
I’m calling for the owner of the motel |
Then noticing the bloodstain on the door |
I’m reaching for the shoes under the bushes |
Just in time to hear the sirens sing |
I’m handcuffed to a fence in Mississippi |
Where things is always better than they seem |
Things is always better than they seem |
You know freedom’s just a stupid superstition |
'cause life’s a highway that you travel blind |
It’s true that having fun’s a terminal addiction |
What good is happiness, when it’s just a state of mind? |
For in the prison of perpetual emotion |
We’re all shackled to the millstone of our dreams |
Me, I’m handcuffed to a fence in Mississippi |
Where things is always better than they seem |
Things are always better than they seem |
