VERSURI FIREWATER
| Firewater - Another perfect catastrophe |
| Ain't nothing like it
When it's twisting and reeling
They'll put the boot right in your eye
Because when the floor turns into wall
And then the wall turns into ceiling
Oh what a lovely way to die |
| Firewater - Balaliaka |
| When the moon opens up her eye
And the sun bows down his head
You come stealing softly to my bed
When the dogs chase rabbit dreams
Cats are milking up the fire
You dance toward me
Balanced on a |
| Firewater - Caroline |
| In your empty bed
You remember every word she said
And every word rings in your head
Except, "I'm Sorry"
And when the dark comes down
Upon this stark and sullen town
Will all her ghosts still h |
| Firewater - Dropping like flies |
| In the cold hard light of day
Do you like the face you see?
Ain't it hard sometimes to say
That your eyes have atrophied?
Because the heart is a slippery one
And it's tricky to dislodge
Carry o |
| Firewater - Hold on, slow john |
| All the locks are broken
Everything's been stolen
Hold on, Slow John
All she left you was a slogan
Now your heart is breaking
Lonesome and forsaken
Hold on, Slow John
There's always a chan |
| Firewater - I am the rain |
| You: back on the town
Skulking around
Looking for something that you lost
What was the price?
And who paid the cost?
And I'm watching..
You: hard shiny and cold
And me: feeling so old
Cause |
| Firewater - I still love you, judas |
| After the party, under the bed
Down where the bad dreams grow
You scrape at the embers
That smoke in your head
Cause it's twenty below
Ask me no questions, I'll tell you no jokes
We'll sleep by |
| Firewater - Isle of dogs |
| How many time do I have to lie
Before you believe me?
And how many time do you have to beat me
Before I learn how to play?
And where are the authorities
When you need somebody blown away
And ho |
| Firewater - Mr. cardiac |
| Hey Mr. Cardiac
Where's my heart attack?
I placed my order six hours ago.
Come on, listen man
You got to understand
I got places to meet
And people to make
And money to blow
Heyy Mr. Sol |
| Firewater - One of those |
| Johnny wiped out
He can't walk
He's got a prosthetic hip
(yeah yeah)
And Jenny don't care
She can't talk
She got Prozac 'scrip'
(oh no)
And daddy's alright
Just retired
He's got an arti |
| Firewater - So long, superman |
| So long Superman
Got a suggestion for ya
Check for kryptonite before ya
Try to break a horse
Hey, ho, here we go now
Pulling onto the freeway
Just like any other weekday
Except there's no rem |
| Firewater - Some strange reaction |
| Oh no, here we go again
It's time to spend the last lucky dollar
Can't you see it now: sleeping on the train
And singing that sad refrain
Oh.. You could have been a contender
By the look in their e |
| Firewater - The circus |
| [the girl:]
I remember a jet slowly scraping
Low and heavy across a sky of slate
I remember the angle of your elbow
As it doubled back
In the crack of fists across a face
I remember the suck of |
| Firewater - When i burn this place down |
| After 29 years
On the stroke of 13
I woke up from my life
Like it was all just a bad dream
My get up and go
Had just got up and split
After you ground me under your heel
Like a spent cigarette
When |
| Firewater - Whistling in the dark |
| Crouching on the cool white tile
SHe's got to learn to take her medicine
With a professional smile
Holy vessel or a toilet bowl
Puking hopes into a urinal
Sun like a blowtorch
Cuts through alum |
