Lambchop Each Time I Bring It Up It Seems To Bring You Down Lyrics

Each Time I Bring It Up It Seems To Bring You Down Lyrics

Hobbled by the fact

That there must be a problem

Confident that there's a trace

Of honor that we share



So let's begin again

And let's not try to answer

With subtle irony

Instead of common sense



Take me to your room

And lay me on the bed



Looking at the stamps

That slowly you've collected

The impression that was made

As you frequently do fly



Dripping on the dock

You shiver from the cold

You're looking pretty good

And I'm feeling pretty old



Is sudden mastery

Of most of the decisions

Convinced of steady growth

In the hours that will come



To take the best of me

And throw it to the dogs



You can call me bastard

And you can call me friend

But don't forget to call me

Before the story ends



Covered in a fabric

That's made from good intent

Poking through a hole

That been eaten by a moth



Let's pretend I'm guilty

Of everything you've mentioned

Reproductively unsound

Reproductively inclined



But can I change the system

Of how I have been measured

It's really unattractive

How little I really know



So shoot me through a cannon

Squash me like a bug

Or sweep me like some dirt

That lies under a rug



Let's start up a petition

To get me out of town

Each time I bring you up

It seem to bring you down
