Lambchop Nashville Parent Lyrics

Nashville Parent Lyrics

But it just looks so cold there from the bottom

Another part of another ritual

Standing in the kitchen, arms are braced against the counter

Swallowing like mercury down the drain



And the neighbors have been drinking

And they are raising quite a stink

Pretty soon they will be fighting

It can get pretty ugly



The city makes a hooting sound tonight

The owl on the roof has got it right

And if it's left to him he can take that stupid grin

And decapitate a rodent or a mouse



Take the B train or the shuttle

At the exit have a smoke

Try to spit onto the sidewalk

Instead you wipe it off your chest



I don't wanna freak

But the tongue erodes

Each time we speak

On a timely mission

Ohh, you look pretty swell

In your new position



Fiberglass, funny face upon the wall

It's funny when it's not funny at all

And if it's up to him, you can take the ways of sin

And smash it like a glass against the wall



But it's nothing too pathetic

Full of rhetoric and doubt

Carry on like little creatures

In the fields of the heart



I don't wanna freak

But the tongue erodes

Each time we speak

On a timely mission

Ohh, you look pretty swell

In your new position
