He took one look at my face and said "I can fix that hole in you"
I beg your pardon I'm not looking for a cure
I've seen enough of my friends in the depths of the Godsick blues
You know I'm a liar (liar)
You know I'm a liar (liar)
Nobody helps a liar (liar)
Cause I've been down to Dixie and dropped acid on my tongue
Tripped upon the land till enough was enough
I was a little bit lighter
And adventure on my sleeve
I was a little drunk and looking for company
So I found myself a sweetheart with the softest of hands
We were unlucky in love but I'd do it all again
We built ourselves a fire (fire)
We built ourselves a fire (fire)
You know I'm a liar (liar)
You know I'm a liar (liar)
And you don't know what I've done
And by the rolling river is exactly where I was
There was no snake or cure for unlucky in love
To be lonely is a habit like smoking or taking drugs
And I've quit them both but man was it rough
(Man was it rough)
And now I am tired (tired)
It just made me tired (tired)
Lets build ourselves a fire (fire)
Lets build ourselves a fire (fire)
I went to a cobbler to fix a hole in my shoe He took one look at my face and said "I can fix that hole in you" I beg your pardon I'm not looking for a cure I've seen enough of my friends in the depths of the Godsick blues You know I'm a liar (liar) You know I'm a liar (liar) Nobody helps a liar (liar) Cause I've been down to Dixie and dropped acid on my tongue Tripped upon the land till enough was enough I was a little bit lighter And adventure on my sleeve I was a little drunk and looking for company So I found myself a sweetheart with the softest of hands We were unlucky in love but I'd do it all again We built ourselves a fire (fire) We built ourselves a fire (fire) You know I'm a liar (liar) You know I'm a liar (liar) And you don't know what I've done And by the rolling river is exactly where I was There was no snake or cure for unlucky in love To be lonely is a habit like smoking or taking drugs And I've quit them both but man was it rough (Man was it rough) And now I am tired (tired) It just made me tired (tired) Lets build ourselves a fire (fire) Lets build ourselves a fire (fire) Explain Request ×
