lyrics

I FRY A SAXOPHONE

‘Scuse me bro. Do you got any after shave?
I can’t get this perfume off my hands.
Have a pretzel...go ahead, take one while they’re free.
I’m on my way home. Love is a beautiful thing.
love is a beautiful thing

I’m off the streets. Dad bought my ticket back.
My hamster’s running loose in the baggage rack.
I can’t smoke. I should’ve just stayed in the bar.
It’s cold on my face. It’s cold everyplace.
It’s cold everyplace

A house of bricks falls down all around me.
A man’s thrown off the train.
He’ll wake up wondering why he’s not in Tacoma.

I fry a saxophone.
I fry a saxophone.
I fry a saxophone.
This is the cause of the effect.

I act natural when my heart’s brimming with fear.
I’ll knock you down if I hear one more peep.
They dogged my heels. Ran bullets right up my sleeve.
Looks like it. I won’t darken this doorstep again.
darken this doorstep again.

A house of bricks falls down all around me.
A man’s thrown off the train.
He’ll wake up wondering why he’s not in Tacoma.

I fry a saxophone.
I fry a saxophone.
I fry a saxophone.
This is the cause of the effect.
