Piss River |
I saw you coming so I got to running |
Like hell, I could tell that you played for keeps |
Now I live on a boat that sits on a moat |
On top of piss river, outside your castle |
And wind death comes 'round, we all sing, «Oh, what an asshole» |
He stirs quite the fuss and he cause quite the hassle |
We all buy black suits as our lives go on mute |
And meet under the belfry to cry and say sorry |
And oh my God |
Mama, I’m scared |
I know you are, baby |
I am scared too |
Do you want to play chess inside my chest? |
You move, I move |
You choose, I choose |
And hoot, hoot, hoot |
I beg like an owl |
As I sit on my perch |
And I stare and I scowl |
I know I left you |
But I cannot forget you |
Now I only know how to harm or upset you |
See, I came for your love but I stayed for your anger |
And you rocked me, mama, like a babe in the manger |
And oh my God |
Mama, I’m angry |
I know you are, darling |
She’s angry too |
And oh my God |
Mama, at who? |
Oh, Carrie |
She’s angry at you |
I tried to pray but I didn’t know what to say |
So I just mumbled some names |
I said, «I hope they’re okay then amen» |
They were the names of my family and friends |
Oh, the planet’s so lonely and the planet’s so cold |
And if I’m so lucky I’ll die when I’m old |
I pray no disaster, no fight, no rain |
And I pray that no devil gets inside my brain |
As the world does its twirl between the moon and the sun |
Casting clock shadows beyond everyone |
And the hours devour us |
As I stare out my window, as I ride this bus |
In men it goes fast, in men what a blur |
But I write it just the same or just as it were |
That feeling in my stomach when the light was low |
And I get warm in my chest when my heart would slow |
That feeling in my head when that music played |
Get dizzy in my soul from the glad song they sang |
What a dream to have ever felt the air so warm |
What a dream to have even ever been born |
And oh my God |
Oh, mama |
I love you |
And oh my God |
Oh, baby |
Oh, darling |
I love you too |
And I know that you know that I do |
I saw you coming |
So I got to running |
But next time I’ll stay put |
Mmm, mmm, mmm |
