Paul Smith - Another Day at Bay lyrics

Whiskey and tobacco Melancholia and black lungs A tree that's hooked on needles And some songs that ain't been sung The full moon and a sunrise Do stand to cast a golden light Upon the failing figure Of Anna Bell in love and life And all the actions we've been takin' All the moves that we've been makin' All the feats that we've goldplated In loving you today Oceans, seas, and lakes and rivers Strewn in nature's defecation I hope the man who swims in each one Is on political vacation Full moon and a sunrise You wake up feelin' only sad And now I've got three memories And all of them are bad All the words that we have spoken All the drunk collected tokens All these people who are chokin' Holding me at bay Hooray
