Sing those songs to everyone Even though they're mine Numb them so they'll sing along In dead-horse time I'll be the one who's laughing at that old joke The one that I told, the one that you wrote
I just want a humble home To defend my love Help me with what I deserve Because she deserves it twice You are the one whose limbs I'm hanging down from And I'll greet my sufferings naked as the day comes The debt that I work hard on Though the merit won't come along You made it into my song
Leave me with the small remains Of your appetite I would do it all again If the pressure's right You'll be the one who's floating in the deep flow And odds are I'll be somewhere far below
Singing like a shadow Spit too thick to swallow I'll be singing like a shadow Laughing at that old joke
