A Song In My Shoes
09.01.05 (5:00 pm) [edit]Straying too far in my overused car
Doesn't bring me closer to the plan
Put on that fake smile, you'll even believe it after a while
Then back it goes inside the can
I made believe I loved it
And I didn't know the difference when daylight hit
All the lawyers, guns and money that my money can't buy
Wouldn't have prepared me for this shit
But I'm happy
Yeah, happy
Ain't so crappy
With a song in my shoes
Danced alone in my head, I couldn't have said
So many of the things I'd like to tell her
So I'll park it elsewhere, and not look back (yeah, right)
And she won't even notice
But I'm happy
Fuckin' happy
Don't feel so crappy
With this song in my shoes
Derived from life-affirming blues
Not a hell of a lot to lose
When you're making up all the clues
Ain't got no golden goose
Barely time to snooze
What the fuck is a repbaschooze?
It ain't on the nightly news
