Robbie Fulks - Barely Human lyrics

A mouth full of teeth and a head full of brains Each morning, the soft rush of blood in my veins The lips taste, the feet walk, a heart pounds within But I'm barely human after one gla** of gin. What footprints are these in the fresh fallen snow? And what kind of creature has hurt my wife so? Who kicked down the front door? I must have been gone... I'm barely human from twilight 'til dawn. She's fed up, she's leaving, and this time, for real But the thirst in my body is all I can feel So slowly the clock turns, 'til night falls at last If I'm barely human, I can still lift the gla**. With one sip, the gin hits, and wipes my head clean And it brings me a vision: a boy of 15 His eyes raised to heaven, his heart strong and brave But I'm barely human as I fall to my grave.
