Lyrics

Shots & Ladders

[Verse 1] They're gonna build a ladder It's gonna take you forever You're always such a disaster But all you hear is laughter [Verse 2] They want to keep you for more tests Stick a needle in your chest And send you home to your own bed And kiss your beautiful forehead See how you feel in the morning [Instrumental]
