Plus One

Three weeks you lived next door, and only now just Thought to float your head around, ask me what's up All the puzzle pieces laid out in the street Soaked in the acid rain, trampled by both our feet Go on without me now, a tattoo on your bac Cotton swabs and vinegar sometimes take the scratch out Meant a lot to you, once upon a ride But I'm on the ground tonight Songs are for telling and records for show Stole my split necklace half to see where I'd help you go The other piece, it doesn't fit where I hoped Go on without me now, a tattoo on your lip Sucker punched to pucker up, can't forget the swelling Meant a lot when you were hauling a long con When I say long, I mean so long Don my petticoat (oh) Lace around my throat (oh) Holding up my head (oh) No good thoughts in it Day trip to the lakeside with sick in your mouth Share it with playboys whose names you still can't get down Yellow-bellied, sunning to white All the puzzle pieces don't change how you like Go on without me now A tattoo on your thigh taught you to put one foot first How's the other lagging behind? Said a lot when you stayed backstage for the show Call me when you need a plus zero
