lyrics

One man's grief is another's first line in a poem
Great, another fucking song about being broke and trying to get home
But the fat man laughs and everybody follows plain in suit
I can't lie to myself any longer i've got this evil urge to shoot

and there'll be no more roses for me
another day and I'll be free
one more shot of morphine
and I'll be shakin' my thirst in a cool ,cool breeze

The dice have been located and thrown
A playwright's act number one
"They used everything about the hog except for his squeal"
I don't want to be just another spoke in this giant fucking wheel!


and there'll be no more roses for me
another day and I'll be free
one more shot of morphine
and I'll be shakin' my thirst in a cool ,cool breeze

I take that monkey down off my stack
He died long ago but I'll bring him back
I pin him down to the wet ground , lightning strikes and he comes around. A rage in his eyes and fire in his breath , (until) I've got nothing left.

and I say, no more roses for me
another day and I'll be free
one more shot of morphine
and I'll be shakin' my thirst in a cool ,cool breeze
