Zita Swoon - Stamina Lyrics
I argued with a wounded manHe saying soAnd me saying: "Oh man,Why can't the beer in my glassStop to fizzThe insane hiss"He said:"Drink up boy,It takes a whole lot a lotwhen you're up to your neck in this"Now there are demons all around meSaying I should get a taste ofwhat freedom really isAnd that I shouldn't resistThe wealthOf this oblivionI used to play with toyguns and toyknivesBut my daddyHe never thought me how to killHe told me how to take the blameBut my daddyHe didn't teach me how to killI was told to be discreetAnd to be able to take an insultBut I was so discreetnobody noticed me mommaI was told to fearAnd fear aloneWould help me what to chooseI dreamed myself to solitudeAnd I left behind my family and my kinI pack my bagsAnd I go slide back to my motherTo hide in her shackFrom this aFighting and fussin'I was raised on meat and alcoholIt don't do any good at allI went clipsEclipseBut I ain't did noI ain't had noI ain't coming backIt's amazing how only a little faithCan point someone in one peculiar directionBut how much it takes for people to admitThey were wrongAnd to renegotiate their intentionsOr how quickly they irritateIf you only mentionThat only 2-3-5 changesTo their daily waysCould make a whole lotta differenceIn the chain of daysIn time and spaceI hope I won't get bustedCause I done no wrongBut of courseYou never knowWhat change might comeIn moralityOr economyEcologySexualityOr any
