Words and music by Mikkel McDow
lyrics
We'll see how it goes
Get a little honey and you get a little closer
Friends are your foes
It doesn't really matter if they think you're just a poseur
When your heart breaks
It's time to take your tired horse and go.
Do what you do
Taking your time and makin' a connection
Book of who's who
Didn't get your name when making their selection
The days aren't all blue
It's time to bail your leaky boat and row
Knock on that door
You ain't coming in no matter if you holler
Rich man or poor
Gotta have a buck if he wanna to make a dollar
Who is it for
Anybody here can spare a dime. Most of the time.
We're talking trash
We got a lot to say and you're gonna get an earful
Under the lash
Itty bitty sheeple looking terrified and tearful
Your hearth turns to ash
Can anybody tell my why it rhymes. With nursery crymes
Get a little honey and you get a little closer
Friends are your foes
It doesn't really matter if they think you're just a poseur
When your heart breaks
It's time to take your tired horse and go.
Do what you do
Taking your time and makin' a connection
Book of who's who
Didn't get your name when making their selection
The days aren't all blue
It's time to bail your leaky boat and row
Knock on that door
You ain't coming in no matter if you holler
Rich man or poor
Gotta have a buck if he wanna to make a dollar
Who is it for
Anybody here can spare a dime. Most of the time.
We're talking trash
We got a lot to say and you're gonna get an earful
Under the lash
Itty bitty sheeple looking terrified and tearful
Your hearth turns to ash
Can anybody tell my why it rhymes. With nursery crymes
