Jack White - Lazaretto Lyrics
My veins are blue and connectedAnd every single bone in my brain is electricBut I dig ditches like the best of ‘emYo trabajo duro [translation: I work hard]Como en madera, y eso? [translation: like the wood, y'know?]Como en madera, y eso?And even god herself has fewer plans than meBut she never helps me out with my scams for free thoughShe grabs a stick and then she pokes it at meWhen I say nothing, I say everythingYeah when I say nothing,I say everythingThey threw me down in the LazarettoBored rotten, bored rottenMaking models of people I used to knowOut of coffee and cottonAnd all my illegitimate kids'll be gottenThrown down to the wolves, made feral for nothingQuarantined on the Isle of ManAnd I'm trying to escape any way that I canOh, any way that I canOh!I don't have no time left! Time is lost! No time at all!Throw it in a garbage can!And I shake god's handI jump up and let her know when I can, this is how I'm gonna do it!They wanna blow down the prison they're lighting fires with the cash of the massesAnd like the dough I don't fall down I'm so Detroit I make it rise from the ashes
