For No One

(Album: Little Neon Limelight - 2015)

Why don't you wait a little bit
For the acid to kick in
Learn to love
That old comedown
That'll spread you so thin
Go n' take the million
Take the derby hats
And stick 'em up your ass
I'll take the cheap seats
Cuz my company don't come
Served inside a glass

Old man in the sea
Doing what you were born too
Shrapnel in my knee
I can't walk and I don't care too

I met a strange bird
Her legs they were skinny
Like a child
She roamed this land
Strong willed, free,
And wild
All the notables and their
Spying wives Three hipsters,
Two merchants, and Kon Tiki
They saw the black dawn
Off in the midnight sky's
Man, you shoulda seen 'em
They were so down in the
Dumps that evening

Old man in the sea
Doing what you were born too
Shrapnel in my knee
I can't walk and I don't care too

I'd do it all for you
But I do it for no one
I'd sing a song for you
But I sing for no one
