13 Cents by John Goodblood Lyrics
Rug burn Baby, Ashtray Honey. Ephedrine Autumnn and Trailer Park Sunny
Polluting in heels in the downtown residue
Strutting her stuff after a gas mask pedicure
Land of the freaks, deformed by the saved
Champagne sewage leaks in the home of the brave
Garage sale molotov, 13 cents a pop
Valet at hell's parking lot, same price different stop
"I'll just have the fish as I hand back the menu."
Waiter Joe grabbed the dish then he jumped in the shark pool
"Will this one do?" He tapped his hand on the glass
"Side of lobster heads too!" Then he sparked up the grass
When I got my plate I thought my food had caught fire
All the time I was bait for the trailer park choir
Fish hook as a neck tie. 13 cents a chop
Whiskey of the cheap kind. Same price, different stop
Life here underground is where I have always been bound
Said Mary Jane crying beside the rain
Pocket Knife Joe here what she saying
Her ephedrine too had a wedding so blue
The molotov child made a page in the news
But if you thinking that I'll bow down like your slave
You better think twice. First you'll see me in my grave
Well now, Trash Can Alison
Trying to get to Madison
Looking for her Carolina
Ain't no other way to find her
If I was ever there. Neither here or anywhere
Or if I should even care all that I have had to bear
Honey for the fool
Chasing sharks inside the pool
All the money in the sea
Lost it's dye still good to me
Big salmon at the pink house 13 cents a bite
Soup kitchen for the dead mouse same price open at night
Life here underground is where I have always been bound
Said Mary Jane crying beside the rain
Pocket Knife Joe here what she saying
It's all I can do. Sing them to you
These words that are in the plainest of view
But if you're thinking that I'll bow down like your slave
You better think twice. First you'll see me in my grave
Polluting in heels in the downtown residue
Strutting her stuff after a gas mask pedicure
Land of the freaks, deformed by the saved
Champagne sewage leaks in the home of the brave
Garage sale molotov, 13 cents a pop
Valet at hell's parking lot, same price different stop
"I'll just have the fish as I hand back the menu."
Waiter Joe grabbed the dish then he jumped in the shark pool

Fish hook as a neck tie. 13 cents a chop
