Shot Of Tears

(album: Vital Signs - 2010)

I saw my baby-o late last night
Camp said he took a shot of my tears
Oh no I couldn't believe I had a shipwrecked life
'Cause I never left that pier
And so now I'm getting high just like I'm dolomite
Maybe even Sally DeBeers
We're taking shots to the brain
We fill ourselves with that love man it's all enough for the fame

But it's never enough
No it's never enough

She's a cabbage patch baby born under the sun
She came into this world at one hell of a time
The middle east was under fire from the B.Y.O.B's
That's the bullshit years of Bush for all you righty tighties
She broke all the rules and never paid for one
'Til that fateful day when she brandished a gun
Stole herself a guitar and then a whole damn band
Pilfered a bottle of Jack cooked up in a frying pan

But it's never enough
No it's never enough
'Cause she's the queen of my world
And I swear

So check your Vital Signs when your heart fails

You well the band woke up in the morning realized what had been done
They'd all been kidnapped now with nowhere to run
Benny was a drummer she knew from way back when
He played drums for her once and then he dove right in
Them pink silky panties with a couple of runs
He left early in the morning swore he'd be back for more fun
But the clock it never lie even to this voodoo child
And the next time that she saw him she put that gun to his eye

Never enough
No it's never enough
Cause she's the queen of my world
And I swear

So check your vital signs when your heart fails

You we're out of control

I saw my baby out late last night
Camp said he took a shot of my tears
But it's never enough
No it's never enough
'Cause she's the queen of my world
And I swear she's bound to fall
