Tonight I'm Wearing Silk

(album: Smell Smoke - 2018)

That's when I reach for my dissolver
That's when I feel dystopia
That's when I reach for my resolver
That's when I think I get the joke

Beat my head against the wall and I pray for a crack
But nobody told me that the wall hits back
Mother pariah come and rescue me
Somebody tell me how it ought to be

A big star, Hollywood
I'll be the tower of ivory
It's made of human teeth
But that just doesn't bother me

That's when I reach for my dissolver
That's when I feel dystopia
That's when I reach for my resolver
That's when I think I get the joke

I would swallow any stone it takes to trade the day away
What route to choose just to delude
Vacation homes and tanqueray
The pedigree of piety, but mister if you disagree
How will you miss your two front teeth
Tonight I'm wearing silk

Spray on tan
Silk on hand
Sam I Am
Have I been here before?
Spray on tan
Silk on hand
Sam I Am
I'm wearing silk

That's when I reach for my dissolver
That's when I feel dystopia
That's when I reach for my resolver
That's when I think I get the joke
