Lyrics I Failed to Use It (Skittish Outtake) - Mike Doughty

I Failed to Use It (Skittish Outtake)

She was a glamorous anglo
Cocktail waitress
Said «What a severe drag
This man is half out of whack
Why should I have to
Mop up his dribble with a rag?»
And when she gets back in half an hour
She gets stoned and watches opera
And well I dream that she aims to be the bloom upon my misery
Lose her once
I have the means
For tiny cards and vegas queens
And when she gets back in half an hour
She gets stoned and watches opera
Strings?
that coax some tears outta her
Well, she drinks beer and takes a tylenol
She was open but
I failed to use it She gets stoned and watches
She gets stoned and watches
She gets stoned and watches
Opera
