Asheville

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.

I was falling through the

cracks, now I'm piling up bricks

I was clutching for straws, now I'm gonna take the fifth

I'm gonna say nothing but my name and that will even be fake

Ha! Why'd you think I came here in the first place?

Piss on the angel, tear down the statue of Vance

Shove the hippie's didjeridoo up their ass

Take away their hackysacks, that's what I'm gonna do

Poison the resevoir and then, I'm gonna kiss you

Sitting on my porch staring at the lights of downtown

Someday we'll make it there, someday we'll burn it down

Instead of running the gauntlet, we'll walk hand in hand

All three blocks and then back again

Eat pecans in the shell, gonna walk around the lake

Sit in the sun and we're gonna eat grapes

And go to the Thomas Wolfe museum

When it's actually open

We were falling through the cracks, now we're starting a pit

We were clutching for straws, now we're gonna drink a fifth

And then drink a few beers and sleep a little bit

Up in my attic
