Sister City - Horsey! lyrics

With enough luck I could erase all I've worked for Not luck but sk**, come to think of it that's more Like my tendencies My past proclivity Towards tripping over my own two feet Not tripping, but stepping deliberately Until my face is flush with the ground I crack a smile on the way down Some nights are a noose and a step stool But I can barely tie my shoes When I was young I joined a boy scout troop for a week or two But decided Nintendo was more my excuse Did you catch that misdirection? Do you hear this introspection? Am I just the sum of what I haven't done? The horse I rode in on, he died But I'll beat him alive I will try I will try With enough luck I could erase all I've worked for Not luck but sk**, come to think of it that's more Like my tendencies My past proclivity Towards tripping over my own two feet Not tripping, but stepping deliberately Until my face is flush with the ground I crack a smile on the way down Some days I'm a parking spot away From convulsing into fits of rage And the forecast gets the final say If fresh air will get an attempt at my face Did you think it's worth a mention That my only real intention's Not to stick to the bottom Or broaden or blossom But breathe the belief that it's really this bleak And I fear this fight is fruitless That my errant ideology That ever-present potency That pallid personality May one day come to define me We've all become miserable people
