Deer Tick - Straight Into a Storm lyrics
[Deer Tick - Straight Into a Storm lyrics]
Is it wrong to think that it ain't no fun
To be anything but second to none?
When I'm second to him every
Time that I come around tell me baby
How long 'til we're gonna get down?
I'm a stranger now in my own house
I'm a brand new man watching
Her undo her blouse
I see my mama of a princess
Though she herself was never a queen
So now I'm heading out West and
I'm gonna get this body clean
Throw it out make some noise
Whatever that it takes you to destroy
Each and every sign of life but little old me
He's away he's in jail
Why don't you man the ship
Before it sets sail?
I said we're heading absolutely
Positively straight into a storm
If we go all the way back now
Where the story began
Back when I was getting paid
And I'm a lucky man and then I got busy
And I'm messing up all my good things
I said "I'ma sweep her, oh
Sweep her right off her feet"
Now I'm sitting here afraid of my next move
I feel worlds apart from how she thinks I do
Sometimes baby
It feels like maybe I don't have any blood
No heart, no soul, no hands, no feet, no love
Throw it out make some noise
Whatever it takes you to destroy
Each and every sign of life but little old me
He's away he's in jail
Why don't you man the ship
Before it sets sail?
I said we're heading absolutely
Positively straight into a storm
Throw it out make some noise
Whatever it takes you to destroy
Each and every sign of life but little old me
He's away he's in jail
Why don't you man the ship
Before it sets sail?
I said we're heading absolutely
Positively straight into a storm
To be anything but second to none?
When I'm second to him every
Time that I come around tell me baby
How long 'til we're gonna get down?
I'm a stranger now in my own house
I'm a brand new man watching
Her undo her blouse
I see my mama of a princess
Though she herself was never a queen
So now I'm heading out West and
I'm gonna get this body clean
Throw it out make some noise
Whatever that it takes you to destroy
Each and every sign of life but little old me
He's away he's in jail
Why don't you man the ship
Before it sets sail?
I said we're heading absolutely
Positively straight into a storm
If we go all the way back now
Where the story began
Back when I was getting paid
And I'm a lucky man and then I got busy
And I'm messing up all my good things
I said "I'ma sweep her, oh
Sweep her right off her feet"
Now I'm sitting here afraid of my next move
I feel worlds apart from how she thinks I do
Sometimes baby
It feels like maybe I don't have any blood
No heart, no soul, no hands, no feet, no love
Throw it out make some noise
Whatever it takes you to destroy
Each and every sign of life but little old me
He's away he's in jail
Why don't you man the ship
Before it sets sail?
I said we're heading absolutely
Positively straight into a storm
Throw it out make some noise
Whatever it takes you to destroy
Each and every sign of life but little old me
He's away he's in jail
Why don't you man the ship
Before it sets sail?
I said we're heading absolutely
Positively straight into a storm
