Go Slowpoke - Melissa текст песни

And the drunks outside are howling like small animals

And I hear a bottle scrape, then explode

And I as I lean out to see

All the smoke being blown free

Forms a cloud around my nose

And the foam starts tumbling in toward the interstate

And I'm quiet, watching colored streetlights blur

Lately, every empty week

Is a marble in my cheek

I can't speak a simple word

I really hate to be so silent right as you're going away

But every time you visit me I feel too wiped out to say

I don't want my sons to be

Anything like me

But I'd love my daughters to

Be like you

So I'm swallowing those raindrops like they're medicine

I can feel them in the soles of my shoes

So they won't shoot back up north

Well yeah, of course

God, I'm so tired of big news

If the lovechild you were always planning on

Would arrive in time to slaughter my bad dreams

At least find me a phone booth

Or someplace totally soundproof

I've got so much left to see

Four years out of my parents' house and I still feel unprepared

I never thought I'd live this life just starting to get scared

I don't want my sons to be

Anything like me

But I'd love my daughters to

Be like you

I really don't believe in God or innocence

So there's no way I can tell you where they are

But if I was ever close

It was eating chocolate toast

In the front seat of your car

So while on one hand I'm happy for you, secretly

I wish you would hang around another year

Because I just spent the last

With my head stuck in my ass

It's a miracle to come clean

But if I don't feel so great because I cannot see you soon

At least I've got that video of you dancing in my room

I don't want my sons to be

Anything like me

But I'd love my daughters to

Be like you
