Lyrics
A Nodding Acquaintance
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
And you'd better be yourself
yourself tastes better
better than pieces of your heart (x2)
Buy me some Indians
to oppose my bored dead cowboys
Buy me some time to spend
Staring into your eyes...
Caught sipping from
the cup of denial
your precious addiction
Your lies taste vile
And you'd better be yourself
yourself tastes better
better than pieces of your heart (x2)
Buy me some Indians
to oppose my bored dead cowboys
Buy me some time to spend
Staring into your eyes...
Caught sipping from
the cup of denial
your precious addiction
Your lies taste vile
And a nodding acquaintance
will be all that's left for us
I'll swear I used to know you
but obviously not enough? (x2)
a nodding acquaintance for me
