lyrics

The coffee shakes have taken hold of you
do you think your body can really handle that?
The weather outside's getting even worse
If you want the truth, then I should tell you that

I think it's gonna rain all week
I think it's gonna rain all week

I'll break into your father's trailer and get your jewelry back
And I'll meet you on the bad side of this cross-county railroad track
Since abandoning my dreams never really caused a fuss
I'll give up on myself so I won't have to give up on us

Will anybody ever understand?
Did they take away your Ritalin?
You'll have to find some other way to use your time
Maybe rob a couple clergymen

The sun's coming out, I think
The sun's coming out, I think

Please add some reinforcement to your taped-on fragile wings
Because you're going down like Icarus or Saint Augustine
If I were a dead possum would you cut my babies out
If I promise not to be the things that I write songs about?
