David Keenan - Man With Broken Bottle lyrics
[David Keenan - Man With Broken Bottle lyrics]
The serendipitous happenings
Music brings to life
It's gone beyond the point of questioning
It's a matter of getting out of the way
A train goes by streaking into the night
Like an iron horse through
The battered bridge below
I tell you I've been smoking too much of late
And we agree that you can't
Be too hard on yourself
And you gotta have something
You will not be free if you are a bitter man
Throw it all away
Dance around the kitchen, man
You will not escape if you are a bitter man
Throw it all away
Dance around the kitchen, man
You know, for show, inhale, sing
La la la la la la la la la la la la la
It strikes me as inappropriate
For someone else's wife
To vent spleen about marital affairs to me
I am an empathic person
But the position I've been placed
In is one I despise
I'm not an on-call receptacle for grief
Y'know? Put me on hold
Pick that bone out of your throat
The governments after you? They're
Hiding under the bed?
I think they'd fold under questioning
The spineless creeps
You will not escape if you are a bitter man
Throw it all away
Dance around your kitchen man
You will not escape if you are a bitter man
Throw it all away
Dance around your kitchen man
Inhale, exhale, sing
La la la la la la la la la la la la la
