Footshooter

Well the booze in my blood runs fast and loud
And my brain shouts down to my mouth
Say whatever I think, say it at him
And when the dam bursts open and you're drowned out, boy
Better go outside and sit in your boat
And wait 'til you get washed away

Hold onto your thumbs, tighten your eyelids
Lock up your ears my dear I'm verbal when I am loaded
Duck under that desk, cover your neck, uh-uh uh-uuuh
Thicken your skin as I begin to shoot myself in the foot again

And as the body succumbs and my mouth goes numb
I limp out to the sound of breaking of broken toes, a vandal spoke
And in the stark and the sobering dry sunlight
I will blink my eyes and hope the blink can erase
All the shit that I said and did

Hold onto your thumbs, tighten your eyelids
Lock up your ears my dear I'm verbal when I am loaded
Duck under that desk, cover your neck, uh-uh uh-uuuh
Thicken your skin as I begin to shoot myself in the foot again

And if I shoot at you, you should shoot at me too
And we can drown in pools of the thick dark words we threw
And as my face turns white, I apologize
I am sorry, it's not your fault, it's mine

Hold onto your thumbs, tighten your eyelids
Lock up your ears my dear I'm verbal when I am loaded
Duck under that desk, cover your neck, uh-uh uh-uuuh
Thicken your skin as I begin to shoot myself in the foot again
