Hahaha I love this shit

Well!

Well!

Well!

Well!

We spun like birds on fire right down towards the residents

And I, I took all that I desired

Even crooks have to pay the rent

We swam like rats on fire right, right down the reservoir

We took all that we could carry but we tried to carry more

And you know, you know, you know it all went wrong

And you know, you know, you know it was all wrong

We choked on straight tap water, well I′m going to have to try the real thing

I, I took your life by the collar and it knew not to swing

Any time I tried an honest job well, the till had a hole and ha-ha

We laughed about paying rent because the county jail's debt free

And you know, you know, you know it was all wrong

You know, you know, you know it was all wrong

Deep water, deep water senseless denial

I went down like a rag doll as you would, child

Well, deep water, deep water senseless denial

I went down like a rag doll as you would, child

Well, Oh lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky me again I said it looks like it′s time to use my feet again

Well I just spent my last one hundred dollars God, I'll pay my bill again oh this is. huh huh huh huh Oh, I don't care

Huh huh huh huh Oh, how I just don′t care

Deep water, deep water senseless denial

I went down like a rag doll, shooken and shy

Oh deep water, deep water senseless denial

Oh I went down like a burnt out rat of a child

Well, King Rat has me on his list again, I can never be on the fence again

Well, I found out it′s all loud open like an organ and it talk, talk, talk, talk, talk again

Well, honest even when I cheated them that I could owe them my heart

Well, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky me again

Oh deep water, deep water this senseless denial

I got fed like a fish, full of open smiles

Oh well, blue water, deep water oh, senseless denial

I got fed a fist by that con, fuck smiles

Well, well, what do you have to say for yourself?

I said, well, well, well, I said well, well, well, well, well!

Lucky, lucky, lucky, lucky me again I hardly knew I should use my feet again

What do you have to say for yourself, what do you have to say for yourself?
