The Negotiator

(albüm: Butch Walker As... Glenn - 2022)

She walks on the set
She hasn't done this yet
Still smell the cheap grease on her fingers
Sometimes the names change
But the plot's the same
She's alone in the crack of the mirror

Whoa, hush little baby, don't say a word
It's not like you're in To Kill A Mockingbird
A stiff upper lip or whatever they say
First notch in the armor then you'll be on your way
These are the words of The Negotiator

My seventeenth year of sobriety
And my sixteenth year on the set
I left suburban Minnesota for a place in Canoga
On dead stock VHS

Whoa, hush little baby, don't say a word
It ain't like you're in To Kill A Mockingbird
A stiff upper lip or whatever they say
First notch in the armor then you'll be on your way, hey
These are the words of The Negotiator

Hush little baby, don't say a word
It ain't like you're in To Kill A Mockingbird
A stiff upper lip or whatever they say

Hush little baby, don't say a word
It's not like you're in To Kill A Mockingbird
Just take it on the chin or whatever they say
Collect a thousand dollars and be on your way
These are the words of The Negotiator
