Slander - River City Extension

You’re a treestump color-wheel\nRemainder with the chance to feel\nFighting father firefly\nAnd thinking it’s ok to cry\nI was scared I saw the snow\nIt’s sooner than I’d like, y’know\nAnd god-forbid I made it through\nPretty voice, I’m missing you\nI saw you maybe in the front yard,\nWith a fruit spilled down your chin,\nYou cried «Who's laughing now?»\nWell look who knows their what’s and how’s\nAnd if you ain’t got the drug,\nPlease have the time\nThe gin and sin coincidental rhyme,\nAnd if you’re not gettin' yours I’m getting mine\nDaylight come and daylight go,\nRecords warp I saw the snow\nFall outside of my window\nWhiskey warm asleep I go\nSince when did I write poetry?\nSince words didn’t mean a thing to me\nSince being down meant singin more\nSince I became so insecure\nI saw you maybe in the bedroom\nWith a knot around your waiste\nYou laughed «I don’t know how»\nIt turns out I was bluffing now\nBut if you ain’t got the drug,\nPlease have the time\nThe gin and sin coincidental rhyme\nBut if you’re not getting yours\nI’m getting mine\nI saw you maybe in the bathroom\nStuffing quarters down your shirt\nYou asked me how I learned to trust\nWhen jesus is ashamed of us\nBut he ain’t got the drug, he ain’t got the time\nThe afterlife coincidental lie\nBut you know the fucking truth and so do I\nBut if you’re not getting yours, I’m getting mine
