Elliott Smith - Sons Into Daughters lyrics

In Storyville that f**ed up cop Hipped on prescription pills That brought my heart to a stop I want to tell you There's a riot coming Like a drug in the water A punch in the stomach Makes sons into daughters I met a girl on the square Who taught me how to k** my cares Once that's done, man, there's nothing to do Time's running backwards for me and you There's a riot coming Like a drug in the water A punch in the stomach Makes sons into daughters My body's running but I don't see why it bothers Sent down to jail with this friend of mine Who wouldn't close both eyes But kept one shut all the time To cover the thing he was scared of While he watched with the other There was a riot coming Like a drug in the water A punch in the stomach Makes sons into daughters There's a riot coming There's a riot coming There's a riot coming
