John Wayne

[Verse 1] Back full of knots Head floating with astronauts Trying to land on the moon Every one of them talks Filling my eyes with Dalmatian spots I look for quiet in my Honda pews [Chorus] I took my troubles down to John Wayne And I watched them fly away [Verse 2] I let a worry warm my bed Put that monster in my clothes You said he'll be the guest if I'm willing to host Because he knows as well as I He's always got a place in my mind I can keep a secret in my head 'til it explodes [Chorus] I took my worries down to John Wayne And I watched them fly away [Verse 3] I hear a song humming in my walls Like a scientist strumming a fuse Maybe one day, I'll hear How the end of that chorus goes And I'll feel the dance burning in my shoes [Chorus] I took my burdens down to John Wayne And I watched them fly away [Verse 4] People filter through this old town like a collander And the sky turns silver as a spoon I draw another face through the window Watch the sun rise through the nose, I know In the heart of sadness, there's a spirit of June [Chorus] I took my sadness down to John Wayne And I watched them fly away
