Lyrics

I Don't Remember

I got no means to show identification

I got no papers show you what I am

You'll have to take me just the way that you find me

What's gone is gone and I do not give a damn

Empty stomach, empty head

I got empty heart and empty bed

I don't remember

I don't remember

I don't remember, I don't recall

I got no memory of anything at all

I don't remember, I don't recall

I got no memory of anything

-anything at all

Strange is your language and I have no decoder

Why don't you make your intentions clear

With eyes to the sun and your mouth to the soda

Saying, "Tell me the truth, you got nothing to fear

Stop staring at me like a bird of prey

I'm all mixed up, I got nothing to say

I don't remember

I don't remember

I don't remember, I don't recall

I got no memory of anything at all

I don't remember, I don't recall

I got no memory of anything

Anything at all

I don't remember, I don't recall

I got no memory of anything at all

I don't remember, I don't recall

I got no memory of anything

Absolutely anything at all

I don't remember
