Desoto Jones Speedbump
how does it feel for you?
pathetically pretending you care.
catching the friends
you let slip through your fingers.
the scales don't lie.
i shouldn't cross words with you
or throw change to extend some favor.
i wonder where everyone
must get their nerve from.
i've gotta know.
what are the answers
you're expecting to find?
threadbare, broken down,
disengaged, a pitiful love affair recycling.
crying and crawling and sucking your thumb.
this is justice, i knew it would come around.
what are the answers
you're expecting to find?
you're not raising the dead, girl
you're just wasting your time.
so say your goodbyes you're over-exposed.
you're a speed bump in everyone's life.
but we won't forget you.
either way you'll still have a place here.
you're a speed bump,
but you won't slow me down cos
i'm light years past all the trouble you've caused
and it's oh so easy for me.
what are the answers
you're expecting to find?
you're not raising the dead,
girl you're just wasting your time.
so say your goodbyes,
you're over-exposed.
some day soon you'll finally let me be
