Lyrics

Pool Shark

[Verse]

Lyin' in my plastic bed

Thinkin' how things weren't so cool to me

My baby likes to shoot pool

I like lyin' naked in my bedroom

Tying on the dinosaur, tonight

It used to be so cool

[Chorus]

But now I've got the needle

And I can shake, but I can't breathe

I take it away, but I want more and more

One day, I'm gonna lose the war

[Verse]

Lyin' in my plastic bed

Thinkin' how things weren't so cool to me

My baby likes to shoot pool

Like lyin' naked in my bedroom

Tying on the dinosaur tonight

It used to be so cool

[Chorus]

Now I got the needle

And I can shake, but I can't breathe

I take it away, but I want more and more

One day, I'm gonna lose the war
