Lyrics

Butcher Blues

Coco believe me
I'm a loathsome man
I want to get stoned and trip some wires
I want to get myself underground
I said that, you must believe me
When I say I'm fightin' the dead
Lyin' low across the evening
Can you see the lumps on my head?
But I got these voices that just keep singin' out
Sayin'
"I just can't stop losin' control"
I said that "I just can't stop losin' control"
"I just can't stop losin' control"
I said that "I just can't stop losin' control"
Trench war on the pavement
Tryin' to score some love
In the corner of the city
Matching faces with fees
I guess that you never been here by the look upon ya face
Standing with all the whores and cannibals
In the censored race
Well I got these voices that just keep singin' out
Sayin'
"I just can't stop losin' control"
I said that "I just can't stop losin' control"
"I just can't stop losin' control"
I said that "I just can't stop losin' control"
You must believe me
When I say I'm fightin' the dead
Lyin' low across the evening
Can you see the lumps on my head?
I guess that you never been here by the look upon ya face
Standing with all the whores and cannibals
In the censored race
Well I got these voices that just keep singin' out
Sayin'
"I just can't stop losin' control"
I said that "I just can't stop losin' control"
"I just can't stop losin' control"
I said that "I just can't stop losin' control"
Well, I got these voices
