Lyrics
Ginger
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.
Everybody’s getting wasted
I just pick my teeth, lurking
In the shadows of the party lights
Order in the court of offers
Playing plebes just like a bad cop with a bribe
I wanna fold up and fall inside
The interstitials of killing time
Wasted, wasted like you
Everybody’s getting spewy
I’m messed up on moons
Acting like a lunatic who needs a tide
Sinewed something awful
Told me, "you can’t swim if you can’t dive
Oh, ginger!
So should I grow up and stem the tide?
I wanna cannonball and kill your time
Wasted, wasted, wasted like you
Wasted, wasted like you
