Nashville Parent Lyrics

[00:55.45] But it look so cold there from the bottom
[01:02.22] Another part of another ritual
[01:09.11] Standing in the kitchen, arms are braced against the counter
[01:16.02] Swallowing like mercury down the drain
[01:22.79] And the neighbors have been drinking
[01:29.57] And they are raising quite a stink
[01:36.05] Pretty soon, they will be fighting
[01:43.44] It can get pretty ugly
[01:50.61] The city makes a hooting sound tonight
[01:57.55] The owl on the roof has got it right
[02:04.40] And if it's left to him, he can take that stupid grin
[02:11.18] And decapitate a rodent or a mouse
[02:18.06] Take the B train or the shuttle
[02:24.98] At the exit, have a smoke
[02:31.34] Try to spit onto the sidewalk
[02:38.38] Instead, you wipe it off your chest
[02:47.82] I don't wanna freak
[02:52.05] But the tongue erodes each time we speak
[03:01.36] On a timely mission
[03:03.41] Oh, you look pretty swell in your new position
[03:09.67]
[03:42.85] Fiberglass, funny face upon the wall
[03:49.65] It's funny when it's not funny at all
[03:56.23] And if it's up to him, you can take the ways of sin
[04:03.08] And smash it like a glass against the wall
[04:09.14] Oh, but it's nothing too pathetic
[04:16.59] Full of rhetoric and doubt
[04:22.92] Carry on like little creatures
[04:30.34] In the fields of the heart
[04:39.58] I don't wanna freak
[04:43.85] But the tongue erodes each time we speak
[04:53.23] On a timely mission
[04:55.43] Oh, you look pretty swell in your new position
[05:02.39]
