Disco Drive

Artists : Les Savy Fav : Disco Drive

looking in the pink
but living in the red.
pissing in the sink,
to drunk to find the head.
begging for the black-
make me rich or
make me dead.

"I want a little pick me up
so I don't stumble down tonight.
considering staying alive
hitch-hiking on the disco drive."

sometimes jobs turn to vacations
but always I must earn.
Still waiting for standing ovations
for filing my tax returns.
searching for zippers
finding only seams.
the seamstress for strippers
must suspect my dirty
peeking schemes.

"I want a little pick me up
so I don't stumble down tonight.
considering staying alive
hitch-hiking on the disco drive."

we're skipping steps,
we're taking breaths,
the band can only bo it's best.
hold your horses, cool your jets.
you can't make me be finished yet.
don't trust the poets
they want to get paid.
they're plying their trade
to the art of getting laid.
don't trust the prophets
their visions are fudged.
they're buying our houses
while selling us floods.
the hours will get you
the owls will get you
when I was a swear word
the hours we shotgunned.
