lyrics

Well I’ve been messed up many times by the curse of the affliction
I’ve been messed up many times by the curse of the affliction
Give me your hand here across this kitchen
And if you see me osified
Or see the pilot light extinguished from my eyes,
Ha ha, hey hey, hee hee

I’ve been untangling coloured lights and covering things with shiny paper
I’ve been untangling coloured lights and covering things with shiny paper
Should I hit my head here on this table
And should you find me blottified
Watching television full of mirth and wine
Ha ha, hey hey, hee hee

But what’s this look of judgment, and what’s this cold conjecture?
I came here just to talk to you and maybe raise a glass with you
Not get a pop psychology lecture
I’ve been through summers in the snow and every winter in July
I’ve given every drop of blood for you I’ve shook myself dry
And I ask myself why

So I’ve been reaching for the jug and it’s been emptying its joy in me
I’ve been reaching for the jug and it’s been emptying its joy in me
And time, yes, it’s starting to toy with me
And if you see me falling down
Forming a fading grey snow angel on the ground
Ha ha, hey hey, hee hee
