Your illegal name in watercolor On a piss stained Frisco truck Hoping some camera'd catch your face And the rain came down And the fat worms show up like seared shut Half clotted blood vein sections Fast fossil drying up You've got no God hand in the when of a raindrop And the paint that you use was waterbased The sound of light rain and burning leaves is the same The hound in night's brain learning dreams is untamed There'll be a time for drying up and dying on sidewalks Years for beards in the bushes in someone's backyard Dead dog in the shade Like an empty old seed pod Did you stay up all night Sprawled out over a xerox enlargement of my placecard Weeping backstage With the pretty plus ones ignoring you (Ooh) these are selfish times (Ooh) these are selfish times (Ooh) these are selfish times SongtexteI got shellfish dimes And sand dollars I'll no longer be the whit. or gaylords heavy The glasses, beard and big wig must go I did not play bigger bank in the backseat Of the cheese that seemed risky But my jeans were called huskys I wrote this one on chipped dead elephant ivory When they come I close the closet door I wanted to breathe on beat And go a fifth higher Than my physical voice was coined for I wanted to serve with hunger But my gut split And the hunger man poured into war (Ooh) these are selfish times (Ooh) these are selfish times (Ooh) these are selfish times I got shellfish dimes And sand dollars Did you stay up all night Sprawled out over a xerox enlargement of my placecard Weeping backstage with the plus one babes (No!)
