How Many Cans?

(album: Irresistible Bliss - 1996)

Is you am a dog?
Is you got a dog?
Is you am a dog?
Hold closed the jaw

How many cans must I stack up to wash you out of my mind, out of my consciousness?
How many times must I cash out to bring you back the check, fat off of my slenderness?

She says "Yeah, but he's not in right now"
You pause. You liked her answer
You know that but you go on
You know but that you go on

How many cans must I stack up to wash you out from my mind, out of my consciousness?
How many times must I cash out to bring you back the check, fat off of my slenderness?
You know but that you go on. You know that but you go on

Slenderness, slenderness, slenderness, fire!
Is you am a dog? Is you got a dog?
Is you am a dog? Hold closed the jaw
