Whistling Dixie - Kevin Devine[00:00:00]
Written by:Kevin Devine/Chris Bracco/Mike Skinner[00:00:01]
Pulling nightshifts at the gym[00:00:20]
And we're a nation full of bookworm girls[00:00:25]
Dumbing down to fall in love with them[00:00:29]
We're a nation full of suspects[00:00:34]
Whistling dixie at the scene[00:00:38]
And we're a nation full of bad detectives[00:00:42]
Selling clues to everyone we meet[00:00:46]
We're a nation full of envy[00:00:51]
Insecure and losing sleep[00:00:56]
We're a nation full of jealous boyfriends[00:01:00]
Driven nuts by facts and history[00:01:04]
We're a nation full of ivy[00:01:09]
It's wall to wall to wall all green[00:01:13]
And we're a nation full of soundbyte bloodcells[00:01:17]
Bound in knots and swelling down the stream[00:01:22]
We wrap bibles up in blankets[00:01:27]
Just in case we're watched in sleep[00:01:31]
But it's the slingshots underneath our pillows[00:01:35]
That keep us calm and rested and relieved[00:01:39]
'Cause we're a nation built on egg shells[00:01:44]
Bandages and[00:01:49]
Apple seeds[00:01:50]
Attractive homes on top of bruised foundations[00:01:53]
That come apart gradually[00:01:57]
Before they're[00:02:00]
Leveled completely[00:02:03]
Yeah before they're[00:02:05]
Leveled completely[00:02:07]
