Les Savy Fav

sad story, second chapter
where the miser lost it all
dressed in rags, colour purple
big man took a great big fall
for what
skips work and gets fired
got sort of back to where he was before
red faced and red handed
he got caught when he went for more
you scratched that
now youll have to put it back
hang up fast
because the lines been tapped
in the kitchen, washing dishes
dont you ever, ever say my name
if you wanna front, front, front, front, front, front, front
then dont turn away
hell no
theres only one way out
when our hands touch, underwater
im as sharp as broken glass
hell no
theres only one way out
hell no
theres only one way out
secret message never found
in a loaded cage on the way down
back at home the sacred sisters all play like the king of come clean
back at home the scared sisters cannot laugh because theyre alone
obligations are so passe
obligations are so passe
obligations cast away
je taime
je taime
je taime
