lyrics

Well this water tastes like pipeline it isn’t fit to drink
and there’s symbols on my shower wall
so i’m bathing in the sink
and miss misunderstood’s misunderstanding all she can
yeah they’ll put her in the movies make her sing into the can
so every boy in town can go home with a broken heart
yeah they’ll go out just the same as her with two shots in the dark

No I won’t nothing
you’ll just tell me that I’m wrong
and oh sweet nuthinz
I’ll be singing till i’m gone

well the people cross the way and cross the pond and cross the sky
they think we’ve lost our minds they’re taking bets on when we’ll die
and I’ll take your coat and I’ll take your hat and i’ll play a little tune
yeah I’ll sing one for the ill fated fanciest baboon
and i just pray one day my tongue will sink back to my teeth
and you know you got a friend when they’re reminding you to breathe

No I won’t nothing
you’ll just tell me that I’m wrong
and oh sweet nuthinz
I’ll be singing till i’m gone

Mama told me never to drink too much of something blue
so I turned off muddy waters and I put on Johnny and June
Right about then I had an epiphany about life and all manner of things
but then I forgot what I was talking about cause I heard the telephone ring

No I won’t nothing
you’ll just tell me that I’m wrong
and oh sweet nuthinz
I’ll be singing till i’m gone
