Huggy Bear Motel

1.

Alone, I press my face into my pillow

Alone-lone-lone, inside that broken tube TV

Alone-lone-lone-lone-lone, but then I know I have to go – away!

 

Oh, the world it is revolving

And more questions are evolving

Find me a place to dig a hole

Then I'll have a place to shit in

That'll be my place to live in

I'll plant some wheat & meat to feed up my soul

2.

And then, it's Henry's Bar at 2 AM (hu-hu)

And then then then, chicken wings are bleeding on my hand (hu-hu)

And then then then then then, she said where are you heading next – tonight?

 

There were things & words I forgot

Driving circles on a parking lot

Close my door and quietly lock my song

In my pocket I have two dead eyes

From the honkytonk I've been last night

And the guy stared at my baby just a little bit to long knows he did wrong

3.

Again, I press my nose into my pillow (hu-hu)

Again-gain-gain,those sheets they smell incred'bly good

Again again again, turn around and put myself to sleep – away
