gold teeth and a curse for this town were all in my mouth
only, i don`t know how they got out, dear
turn me back into the pet i was when we met
i was happier then with no mind-set
and if you`d `a took to me like
a gull takes to the wind
well, i`d `a jumped from my tree
and i`d a danced like the king of the eyesores
and the rest of our lives would `a fared well
new slang when you notice the stripes, the dirt in your fries
hope it`s right when you die, old and bony
dawn breaks like a bull through the hall
never should of called
but my heads to the wall and i`m lonely
and if you`d `a took to me like
a gull takes to the wind
well, i`d `a jumped from my tree
and i`d a danced like the king of the eyesores
and the rest of our lives would `a fared well
god speed all the bakers at dawn may they all cut their thumbs,
and bleed into the buns `till they melt away
i`m looking in on the good life i might be doomed never to find
without a trust or flaming fields am i too dumb too refine?
and if you`d `a took to me like
well i`d a danced like the queen of the eyesores
and the rest of our lives would `a fared well
