lyrics

ballad for crooked tooth

your lips upturned your crooked teeth kill me
cross the country again
heard you saw your father bike into his grave
all those things he saved and couldn't give away

lame ass town
a dungeon
a lame ass town
i'm stuck in one

drove off in love
with two boys stuck in your glove box
off into the country
tired of breathing people and dust
high miles, mile high
drivin through blizzard dead and
omaha mama's waitin with made up beds
the christian through the blizzard hell
and you licked a million flakes
and it's just as well

lame ass town
a dungeon
a lame ass town
i'm stuck in one

oh yeah, lost my shit
got drunk fell down a bit
threw it all in a garbage pail
and laid down in the gutter
you kissed my knee, you lit my sail
you threw me up jumpin stairs
on the hood, so good
cussed out like we should in a

lame ass town
a dungeon
a lame ass town
a settin sun

lame ass town
and i'm stuck underground
a lame ass town
and i'm sure glad you stuck around.
