Mike Patton - When Good Dogs Do Bad Things lyrics

I'm the best you'll ever have You're the best I'll never have Pain... Gone Rain... Stop Sun... Shine You're... Mine Here kitty, kitty, kitty Mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy, mommy Listen Listen through the walls The sound of quick footsteps sneaking down the hall Whispers The pages turning The leaky roof The toilet flushing Numbers on the license plate I'm nothing more than The best you'll never have A speck on your bedroom wall A blood-red waterfall The best you will ever have Your dead things are locked up inside Blow smoke rings straight back in time Roses floating out with the tide Dance and sing under gunfire Open wings slowly take flight... Around these parts a fly can live--- A fly can live a thousand years But a man cannot die soon enough, true enough A smiling drunk nursing a gla** of milk A girl with a face like prison bread Over the kitchen noise, I hear them howl at me A scabby ketchup bottle and a two-dollar bill I guess it's time to pay the bill, but you know I never will I'm hungry still... Run away, run away, run away, run away Mercy k**ing on the way Never thought I'd hear you say Falling to your knees and pray now... In this crowded place I could swing a cat And not even hit a soul... It's just the lonely vacuum of human black holes And I'm as dry as these thirsty trees With big city thoughts in the dirty breeze... Promising to set me free "Waiter, check please..." I'm the best you will ever have
