Stephen Kellogg - Nailed Inside His Blues Again lyrics

The weather's changing and he wants a drink Like a baby that's sleeping in a bed too big Like a brother who's afraid of what he'll see, These are the saddest things to me He says he understands and he's trying to think Like a drunk who stays sober one day of the week And the kid who's picked last in the schoolyard game Is the one who never forgets a name It's pushing and pulling Wondering what is the matter with me? As I listen to memories chatter lately And I don't feel that young as I'm looking at 21 years Wondering if everyone's as happy as they appear He's on the fence with most of his views And it seems that the bullies have grown up too It's safer, we've learned, to hedge our bets But to say what you think means not to regret Ask me if he stands a chance, I'd say as much as the old man Wondering how we are who we are It's clear you don't have to look all that far His parents say is that all? Is that all? Is that all? It's like a picture gla** window as it hits the wall This book is too heavy for the casual read It's an expectation that's a lot to be underneath It's pushing and pulling Wondering what is the matter with you? As I sit here and I listen to these problems You should of worked through And I thinks its a shame that you're pa**ing them on But it's always the same between a father and son...
