A Song About A Friend

(专辑： God Loves Ugly - 2002)

[Slug:] "I didn't say nothing."
[Girl:] "What?"
[Slug:] "I didn't say nothing."
[Girl:] "Yes you did."
[Slug:] "No I didn't."
[Girl:] "No you didn't say anything, you just looked at me funny like I'm some sort of fucking freak."
[Slug:] "I didn't look at you."
[Girl:] "Yeah, you looked at me."
[Slug:] "No."
[Girl:] "Yeah, you fucking did."
[Slug:] "What do you mean, freak?"

Who's this one about? Who's this one about?

[Slug:]
These headphones keep me from remembering (rememberin')
Also guilty of letting me not forget (also guilty)
What type of harvest will September bring? (beckoning)
Everyone to put him to that test (somebody please kill me)
I've got a sickness, it feels like love
It's not contagious, take off the gloves
Drop your defenses, apply a coat of perfect
I'll form the sentences you try to interpret
It'd all be so simple if I was rich (but I'm not)
But I'm not so I compensate with thought (I got a lot)
I got a lot of nothing that you need to know (ay yo)
You would think he wasn't aware of the glow (where'd you go?)
Swimming in a bottle of impostors
Losing my ground in the name of taking it farther
We can thumb wrestle or we can make a daughter
I thought it was supposed to get easier when you worked harder
Stole the city, I still feel helpless
Baited the hook and caught me a selfish
I'm gonna gut it, clean it, cook it, feed it to a she
And see if I can get her to need me

And now I'm standing at the bottom of the steps
And if I tilt my head a little I can look up her dress
And I'm willing to bet that she'd move if she knew
So I'mma tap her on the shoulder, I'mma give her a clue
Standing at the bottom of the steps
And if I tilt my head a little I can look up her dress
And I'm willing to bet that she'd move if she knew
So I'mma tap her on the shoulder, I'mma give her a clue

[Slug:]
All it takes is a stroll down the street
A pro and he greets a new soul he'd like to meet
Showed you the beating of the artery he keeps on the end of his sleeve
As he pretends he can breathe
Lend me a piece of your superiority
I feel alone on this mission, I'm wishing there was more of me
A pair of me, apparently I'm a parasite caught inside a paradox
A paradise, a parody, the hair police have got what you need
For you to get over me and move on with Godspeed
I'd let it all go and break eggs for a living
If I wasn't so conditioned to just take what I'm given
Get it, got it, catch it, caught it, and lost it
Yet I can't stop it, it's embedded in my optics
Plus the frustration is a product of the gossip
If you can't walk away can you at least change the topic?
Overextended the amount of time allotted
Broke the engine, I don't know, cracked the block
Now I'm standing at this gravel roadside festival
And I ain't trying to move cause this view is incredible

Standing at the bottom of the steps
And if I tilt my head a little I can look up her dress
And I'm willing to bet that she'd move if she knew
So I'mma tap her on the shoulder, I'mma give her a clue
Standing at the bottom of the steps
And if I tilt my head a little I can look up her dress
And I'm willing to bet that she'd move if she knew
So I'mma tap her on the shoulder, I'mma give her a clue

[Slug:]
Fall in love with all of she (Fall in love with all of she)
Hasn't stopped calling me (Hasn't stopped calling me)
Message in a bottle (There's a message in a bottle)
And I stepped inside a pothole (I stepped inside a pothole)
Somehow forgot my name (Somehow forgot my name)
Blew out the flame (She blew out the flame)
A means to an end (A means to an end)
Can't even be friends, it's a song about a friend
She's still in my dreams (She steals all my dreams)
Angel spread your wings (Angel spread your wings)
Trying to comprehend (I'm still trying to comprehend)
Can't even be friends, it's a song about a friend

[Slug:]
All together (Who!)
Smile while you do that shit, you know what I'm saying?
Cause like some of ya'll, if you ain't smiling you're ugly I swear to God
Alright, some mean mugs
Alright, on the count of three. 1. 2
