The Bottom

A small riot in a passenger van

Seems you traveled a long way to get laid and get the glass in your hand

A new fixture a lease on the street

How's it feel to be watched when you sit wight he drunks in the cheap seats

So come early it's the first of the month

Taking only beginners, 10 below and it feels like a punch

In the jaw, there's so many to chase

But if I get out in front, they won't bother with the look on my face

Two days from the southern state

Who knows how long the ocean breaks for you

So drown in the way things used to be

Hell waits on the sober dates

For the young skin pale by the summer lake

Taking fast to avoid the begging questions

They can wait

A sole witness never taking the stand

1 Hour to listen but 7 nights to sleep with the band

Will you lie if you can't get along with the east village

As they lean back and inhale the smog

Shoot strait with a crooked stare

And stay out with the girls who put all the bright colors in their hair

Do they talk, so little do they care

Is this what you came for, or the late nights going nowhere

20 Years and you can't relate

To the d street girls who don't cooperate

With the elder state trying hard to teach them a lesson

When the wind and the water and the winter waste

Make you shake like a new born in a nurses face

And the neighbors have escaped with all the heat

You can stay with me

You came around

Drank the bottom from this town

Saying this will bring us together

You came around

Fucked with all the boys in town

Saying we can live forever

Young able and socially tight

She had 1 foot out the door

And two boys for the rest of the night

10 minutes tipping in here seat

For someone to take the offer

Or a brawl to break out in the backstreets

So come early second day of the week

And you'll get a strait answer from the poets

Making out with the deadbeats

Lord knows what your doing here

But if you sail through the winter

You'll be hammered for the rest of the year

To fucking old to make so many mistakes

You were fucking so young, you didn't know what to take

From your family and friends and they won't return your phone calls

Street lights call a different race, mixing vodka and wine in a cigarette case

How many times can i pray for the morning after, amen

You came around

Drank the bottom from this town

Saying this will bring us together

You came around

Fucked with all the boys in town

Saying we can live forever

You came around

Drank the bottom from this town

Saying this will bring us together

You came around

Fucked with all the boys in town

Saying we can live forever
