Lyrics
The Prophet
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.
There's fire in her eyes in the altercation
She blames her poverty on her parents generation
She says they sniffed it up their nose now they want our payments
Its fucking cold in here, the landlord is trying to make us vagrants
And jack our whiskey buddy hits him with an iron fist
The landlord goes down swinging while you drink your buddies piss
I don't know what to do now that I'm definitely on a list
I just sit batch and brew with coca cola communists
I'm glad you came and turned up next to me
Like a grenade with a pin out at the party
You're like a fucking hurricane next to me
Theres fire on the fringe whittle them down down
I think she lost her looks to the beauty and terror
She says her friends are fucked and in the fairest of weather
She asked me is it painless am I humoring the brainless
Being young and drunk and all fucked up and being in entertainment
I don't ask the questions I don't write the rules
I'm up for suggestions I will follow you through
It cant be any worse then what I've been up to
It cant be any worse then what I've been up to
I'm glad you came and turned up next to me
Like a grenade with a pin out at the party
You're like a fucking hurricane next to me
Theres fire on the fringe whittle them down down
I don't know what it is that your doing to me
I haven't cracked a smile since 93
She says the pretty girl dont place to be
No shit sherlock shoot them down down down
I don't ask the questions I don't write the rules
I'm up for suggestions I will follow you through
It cant be any worse then what I've been up to
It cant be any worse then what I've been up to
I don't ask the questions I don't write the rules
I'm up for suggestions I will follow you through
It cant be any worse then what I've been up to
It cant be any worse then what I've been up to
I'm glad you came and turned up next to me
Like a grenade with a pin out at the party
You're like a fucking hurricane next to me
Theres fire on the fringe whittle them down down
I don't know what it is that your doing to me
I haven't cracked a smile since 93
She says the pretty girl dont place to be
No shit sherlock shoot them down down down
