Joe’s Head by Kings of Leon Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 2003

[Verse 1]
Blistered, cracked and bleedin'
Cold, no one should know
Rain falls down a freezin'
And stickin' like a snow
Lingerin' Suspicions
Screamin' in my head
Lies all mixed up with omissions
Oh, welcome home again

[Pre-Chorus]
It's too late for apologies, they're fallin' at my feet

[Chorus]
"This is just the way of the world," Joe said
I had to put a bullet into his head
And then lit up a cigarette
Decided to call his fat friend Fred
Well, he said, "Fred, I just killed a man"
I caught him layin' with my girlfriend
And now, they're both dead
People can be so cold when they're dead
[Verse 2]
Callin' all the neighbors
Time to make amends
Whiskey floods the table
Oh, good friends 'til the end

[Pre-Chorus]
And they're making silly faces and it's tastin' bittersweet

[Chorus]
"This is just the way of the world," Joe said
I had to put a bullet into his head
And then lit up a cigarette
Decided to call his fat friend Fred
Well, he said, "Fred, I just killed a man"
I caught him layin' with my girlfriend
And now, they're both dead
People can be so cold when they're dead

[Pre-Chorus]
It's too late for apologies, they're fallin' at my feet

[Chorus]
"This is just the way of the world," Joe said
I had to put a bullet into his head
And then lit up a cigarette
Decided to call his fat friend Fred
Well, he said, "Fred, I just killed a man"
I caught him layin' with my girlfriend
And now, they're both dead
People can be so cold when they're dead
"This is just the way of the world," Joe said
I had to put a bullet into his head
And then lit up a cigarette
Decided to call his fat friend Fred
Well, he said, "Fred, I just killed a man"
I caught him layin' with my girlfriend
And now, they're both dead
People can be so cold when they're dead
