Belly of the Beast

It was lost in a sound like this

Often times his mind told himself was bliss

Acoustical lullaby with all hell going on inside

It was a trench coat, top hat, shot gun, dog down day

It was a sound a bit like this

Trashy and blue with a blaggard's hiss

Talking about get love today

In a strung up hand dog, head fuck, quick buck way

Packed up and I headed east

Headed for the belly of the beast

But within a Bangkok's half hour

I was way laid by a lower power

It was a smacked up, cracked up bone shot, smacked down day

Don't know if I can go on

Making no sense in songs

Don't know if this is forever

Sometimes feels like forever

Forever and a dog down day

It was found in a state like this

By town and hammered up and a bloodied fist

His heart was broken but he got the jist

Get he can't carry on like this

It was a black jack, paddy whack, stick a brother in the back day

Back in London's grey scotch mist

Starring up at my therapist

He says pound for pound, blow for blow

You're the most messed up motherfucker I know

It was a twelve step, bus fare, knock down, daycare day

Makes no odds that you're there

Makes no odds that you care

Makes no odds anymore

Forever and a dog down day

Don't know if I can go on

Making no sense in songs

Forever and a dog down day

Is this failing

Supposed to be plain sailing?

Don't fade away

Don't fade away

Glory Hallelujah day

Glory Hallelujah day

(He was lost, I was found)
