lyrics

Peace of mind or slight of hand
That's what it takes to be a man
Before I go, there's one more thing
You look so stupid when you sing

I saw your face
I read your letter
Just when I thought
It would get better
And I'll start by myself, oh you know

Reverse the first reverse anniversary
And be cursed to spend your future with me
20 years of this mess
And I'm less than impressed
What's more is less
I confess

You were all wet and on all fours
They thought your screams meant you want more
Remember me, shy, at your door
When you see my name on a jewelry store

I was still raw
And dressed in leather
You bring the tar
I'll bring the feathers
And I'll start by myself, oh you know.

Reverse the first reverse anniversary
And be cursed to spend your future with me
20 years of this mess
And I'm less than impressed
What's more is less
I confess

Say what you will it's a bad dream
I hate to think that people think I'm mean
Just when you're down its swim upstream
An on my grave to place wreath

Were you shook when you were cooked by your crooked occupation
Forever chasing treasure in lieu of a vacation
Constricted by addictions and in need of of validation
Forever giving weather on a forgotten station
