Shoulda Known

Naked in the bathtub
 Sittin' on the porcelain
 Waiting for that little hurricane to pull your torso in
 The water don't run, just drips like rain
 Still drips like a painkiller drips to the veins
 Fill it up
 With a bag of that happy stuff
 Cuz the way she runs out, you can tell she ain't had enough
 Good times goddess
 My goodness
 Got finger nail polish autopilot foot prints
 With a smile that's stitched to the fabric of bedtime tales and
 Keep them kids out of the attic
 The mouth of madness
 Loud and manic
 The motive of the bird holding south on the atlas
 Picture a hole
 Put your hero in
 Envision the gold
 Now zero in
 Been watching your night train track for the last few stops
 With no desire to hop it
 How did we end up in your apartment
 Pocket full of gossip says this ain't smart
 When it's all said and done, can't get restart
 But I'll be damned if I don't wanna kiss you--
 Hard
 (chorus)
 Shoulda known better not to f**k wit' you
 Ain't got nothin' but too much to lose
 Lost in the rush don't know what to do
 That drug got you like I want you
 Shoulda known better not to f**k wit' you
 Ain't got nothin' but too much to lose
 Lost in the rush don't know what to do
 That drug got you like I want you
 I've got a restraining order
 Against Satan's daughter
 And I keep it at the bottom of this Jameson and water
 And when we get there
 You can sit there and stare
 From behind your mascara and your thick hair
 I'm aware of that pain you harbor
 The same negative game to the names you martyr
 Apart from the details and substance and whatnot
 That hunger of love pistol and gut rot
 Bloodshot
 Give me one shot, my shot
 Hopped up on enough talk to make time stop
 The lines of chalk that benjamin might cop
 Killed the illustrations on the neighborhood sidewalks
 Then all of a sudden she got silent
 Pupils like marbles, hide behind the eyelids
 Get away sticks go limping hole place
 The smile sucked up most of her face
 Truly you beat the scene so surreal
 And each criticism becomes redeemed
 Swallow my words
 No more judgment it's true
 Cuz you look like what I feel like when I'm with you
 Shoulda known better not to f**k wit' you
 Ain't got nothin' but too much to lose
 Lost in the rush don't know what to do
 That drug got you like I want you
 Shoulda known better not to f**k wit' you
 Ain't got nothin' but too much to lose
 Lost in the rush don't know what to do
 That drug got you like I want you
