Sketchy Metal

[00:01.00] She only pays attention to the prices of cigarettes
[00:05.37] She says she hopes they'll get cheaper
[00:10.93] She only takes the pick-me-uppers
[00:15.90] To counteract all the put-me-to-sleepers
[00:21.37] She used to be a receiver
[00:25.75] Went out deep for guys that looked like Johnny Fever
[00:32.62] Last winter
[00:34.20] I swear I thought she might be our savior
[00:38.35] Went through a skater phase
[01:01.81] Went through a raver phase
[01:03.57] I went through a razor blade phase
[01:07.61] I guess I went through a hundred dollars a day
[01:11.46] It was dark along the edges of the city
[01:16.08] But the light shined through behind the reinforced doorways
[01:20.89] They're tipping over in the taprooms
[01:24.27] They're shooting through the ceiling and they're bleeding on the floor
[01:28.00] And yeah, for sure we got dosed
[01:32.23] We hung out pretty close with some questionable folks
[01:36.41] We got ideas from some dangerous thinkers
[01:41.11] We put our mouths up to some dangerous drinks
[01:45.58] Some nights we almost froze
[01:49.00] But we rubbed up pretty close to some rock and roll promoters
[01:53.25] Stayed up pretty late with some rock and roll performers
[01:56.95] It's always entertaining when you're hanging out with entertainers
[02:03.25] Went through the publicist
[02:52.85] To try to get through to the rhythm guitarist
[02:57.78] We got so high that the audience, they looked just like ants
[03:02.82] Woke up with the backstage pass in my pants
[03:06.42] She said, "I used to be a speed shooter
[03:11.23] I went out deep for guys that looked like Alice Cooper
[03:17.48] And last winter
[03:18.83] They had my heart all hooked up to computers."
[03:23.70] We didn't see the holy ghost
[03:26.32] But the father and the son they seemed like regular folks
[03:30.33] Jesus rolled his eyes when his dad made Jesus jokes
[03:37.48] And he forgave me for my sins
[03:42.17] He said, "Let this famine end and let the 2-for-1s begin
[03:46.55] And bless the beasts and the children and the water and the waiters."
[03:49.99] It's always so creative when you're hangin' out with our Creator
[03:53.03] And his son, our savior
[03:57.17] You get your picture in the paper if he lets you in his trailer
[04:04.46] It's always so amazing
[04:06.75] When you're finally coming down with entertainers
[04:10.03]
