Chewing on Tinfoil - One Good Shirt lyrics

They're looking up their skirts And they're asking if it hurt when they fell "What's an angel like you doin' in hell?" They wore their one good shirt Now they're rolling in the dirt and the blood and the beer Just get me out of here I'm running for my life before they cut me down to size Back when there were more buses than taxis in the city Oh it returns again She looks him in the eyes but he's glancing at her thigh She can tell by the way he moves he's under her spell The night just feels the same as they stumble down a lane In their heads it's the next best thing they have to a bed They can't see the sky, even though they tried Glowing lights just rea**ure me, darling, that nothing's alright Oh it returns again Oh oh how does it feel? You think you're ready? I don't know why you're asking He's my brother, he ain't heavy She's finding her way home, so much harder on your own When she falls there is no angel waiting for her at all The scent she leaves behind lingers longer in his mind Is that a tear or the remnants of more spilled beer? Promissory notes catching in his throat And a gag, it's the best feeling that he's ever had Oh it returns again Oh oh how does it feel? You think you're ready? I don't know why you're asking She's my sister, she ain't heavy
