Bad Karma 02:55
There’s someone singing at midnight, And there’s people in the basement. And the people in the front yard, Are spreading to the road. And my friends are sitting upstairs, In the AC and the warm air. There’s people in the kitchen, And I can’t get to the phone. Please don’t ask me about the people I know, Please don’t ask me about the people I know. I’ve got a lot of shit to deal with, Do I also have to deal with you? I’ve got a lot of shit to deal with, I’ll be over it before it’s through. And I’ve got every good reason, To be angry at the daylight, To be sleeping in the front yard, To be drinking in the bed. You’ve got your own way of dealing, With these shitty situations. I’m sitting by the front door, Asleep in your head. Please don’t ask me about the people I know, Please don’t ask me about the people I know. I’ve got a lot of shit to deal with, Do I also have to deal with you? I’ve got a lot of shit to deal with, I’ll be over it before it’s through. I’ve got a lot of bad karma, And I’ve got nothing to do. I’ve got a lot of shit to deal with, Do I also have to deal with you?

Leather on plastic door frames, You can’t ignore him, You can’t at all. So picture a plastic door man, Colossal door man, Stands ten feet tall. When we’ve got no meaningful emotions, I can’t hear over commotion, From the kitchen or the bedroom. When we’ve got no meaningful emotions, I can’t hear over commotion, From the mess you made. And there was someone in my house, And in my hands and in my mouth, And she was screaming on the phone. When what you don’t want back, Can somehow fit inside of this Kroger bag. Tell me, maybe can we make some time to be alone? Stockings, I wish you wore lipstick more, Cause red could be my favorite color, If that was the only thing you wore. And you’ve got this subtlety, That seems to be the part of you that never wants to get me. You’ve got your stereo turned down.

And I am learning to accept myself, And I am getting better and I’m teaching myself to survive. I’m getting older and I’m learning to hold my tongue, But being honest isn’t easy when you feel dumb. We play but we play for keeps. You leave the door unlocked, you gotta deal with the creeps. And we stay, Fucked up. She is the things that she does, And if you couldn’t have her now then she was never worth the buzz. We live with the people we are, You told me anything in life worth doing is gonna be hard. I’ve never spoken to the people who live next door, Maybe they represent the shit that I try to ignore. I’m getting older and I’m learning to hold my peace, But being sober doesn’t help when I can’t find my keys. We play but we play for keeps, You leave the door unlocked, you gotta deal with the creeps. We pay for our wasted love, You say you like drugs, do I like drugs? She is the things that she does, She said I better tell you now before you fall in love. We live with the people we are, You told me anything in life worth doing is gonna be hard.

I was messing with my phone, You were climbing up the front steps towards my home. You were in my head, you were in my dreams, You were part of everything it seems to me. And you were looking for a place to call your own, But if you never leave then you’re never gonna go. Get out of my head, get out of my house, Get off of my mind and get off of my couch. We never had enough to count on, We never had enough at all. We were looking for God but we never found him, Instead we found out something about us all. We’ve got the people here surrounded, And it ain’t about nothing. We’ll turn this paper into gold. We were looking for love but we never found it, Instead we fell in love with rock and roll. I was sitting at a bar in the basement, Looking at a lonely cigarette in the ash tray. You went to bed just to try to make a statement, No one ever leaves before two on a Saturday. And we’ll try to stay open minded, Cause they say that pride comes before the fall We went looking for God but we’ll never find him, Instead we found out something about us all. We’ve got the people here surrounded, And it ain’t about nothing. We’ll turn this paper into gold. We were looking for love but we never found it, Instead we fell in love with, You, You can take my face and take my simple hands, And turn them into something new.
