The Walkabouts - Hell's Soup Kitchen lyrics

Rolled in the mud But i could never come clean Counting blessings on my middle finger There in the back shed Pricing heads to the pound Told to shut up, i was only breathin' Hell's soup kitchen There you're listening now Heard you coming I heard you deep in the ground The job was dizzy on the carnival wheel Coins a-flipping a siren's screaming Told quit the ride And you'll go straight to the dogs But dogs they come home And dogs they listen Hell's soup kitchen There you're listening now Heard you coming I heard you deep in the ground And my nerves were wire And the shots they fell wide Pearls of wisdom dripping from my forehead Crawled in a sleeping bag And watched them close in Tires spitting all my trust to the sky Hell's soup kitchen There you're listening now Heard you coming I heard you deep in the ground
