Matt Squire - Nails for Breakfast, Tacks for Snacks (Demo) lyrics

[Verse 1] Watch your mouth Your speech is slurred enough That you might swallow your tongue You'd want to give up the ghost With just a little more poise than that Or was it God who chokes In these situations, running late, no, no He called in, he called in The hospice is A relaxing weekend getaway Where you're a cut above all the rest Sick and sad patients On first name basis with all the top physicians [Chorus 1] Prescribed pills To offset the shakes To offset the pills You know you should take It a day at a time [Verse 2] That's when you stutter something profound To the support on the line And with the way you've been talking Every word gets you a step closer to hell No I just can't help it To say what everyone else is thinking Let me state the obvious again [Chorus 1] Prescribed pills To offset the shakes To offset the pills You know you should take It a day at a time Prescribed pills To offset the shakes To offset the pills You know you should take It a day at a time [Chorus 2] I am Alone in this bed, house, and head And she never fixes this But at least she Makes me forget I am Alone in this bed, house, and head And she never fixes this But at least she Makes me forget [Chorus 1] Prescribed pills To offset the shakes To offset the pills You know you should take It a day at a time Prescribed pills To offset the shakes To offset the pills You know you should take It a day at a time
