Noose Dressed Like A Necklace - Kevin Devine[00:00:00]
Written by:Kevin Devine/Chris Bracco/Mike Skinner[00:00:02]
A cadillac drives down my street[00:00:16]
A bead of sweat pourin slow down a palm line[00:00:20]
I see a bumper sticker[00:00:25]
It's a bearded man with a wanted sign[00:00:28]
A myth we've made to scare out fears away[00:00:31]
A slogan that we slap on all our misdirected hate[00:00:36]
A muddy symbol meant to mitigate our pain[00:00:40]
But it's really just a desert corpse[00:00:45]
We've painted on the wall out in some[00:00:48]
Cave[00:00:53]
Anyway[00:00:57]
I don't know where he's gonna park that thing[00:01:01]
My neighborhood drunk's on line at the deli[00:01:17]
With his shaky hands and his swollen face he waits[00:01:21]
For his coffee[00:01:24]
He blacks out curbside every night[00:01:26]
And every day crawls back towards wall street[00:01:29]
So I don't see it like it's us and them[00:01:31]
I just see everybody working for that same eternal weekend[00:01:36]
Droning on and on and on and never doing what[00:01:42]
We wanted[00:01:45]
Heavy legs two steps behind some forever dangling[00:01:47]
Carrot[00:01:53]
And I'm tired of this[00:01:58]
So who's to say that we can't just f**king change[00:02:01]
It[00:02:06]
And I know it seems dramatic[00:02:53]
But I treat it like a crisis[00:02:56]
The office to the coffin[00:02:58]
All our time and talent wasted[00:03:01]
And that weight against your throat[00:03:03]
Is that a noose dressed like a necklace[00:03:06]
From here I couldn't[00:03:09]
Really tell the difference[00:03:11]
Either way I say[00:03:23]
Let's not take any chances[00:03:26]
'Cause I don't know where he's gonna park that thing[00:03:34]
No I don't know where he's gonna park that thing[00:03:44]
No I don't know where he's gonna park that thing[00:03:54]
