The Roundabout

There's no instance

In conscience or convenience

Even though you stand on heavy shoulders

I'll take the roundabout

'Cause I like to see St. Jude

Again and again

Hands folded in prayer

God, do you write prescriptions?

God damn, my signature is fake

I'll take the roundabout

'Cause I like to see my house

Number four, number five

Number six, number seven

And number eight

And I'd buy you a drink

My credit is quite shit

We can all laugh and have tap water

My friend laughs 'cause he thinks he's having a daughter

You can find me at the roundabout

And you try the passenger door

Aw shit man, it doesn't even work

And you cry like you've never seen water

And come to think of it I think my dad wanted a daughter

You can find me at the roundabout

Where every lotto ticket wins you ten dollars

Inside the city limits that don't even buy cigarettes

You hit the back road

You grab a carton

Lean into my shoulder

Wearing an old man's coat

Couple more badges and a two cent stamp

Will you love me at the roundabout?

You can find me at the roundabout
