Gas Mask Blues Lyrics

Sleeping In The Aviary Gas Mask Blues

Tried to speak but I can only swear
Open up my mouth but I can only swear
Swear since the last time you will see me here

If I have a son I will not give him my name
If I have a son I will not give him my name
Tired of 27 people, all of 'em named Shane

Joseph, my brother, he left and went away
Joseph, my brother, he left and went away
Don't got [?] girl, till he's awake

What about my sister, how she don't have any home?
And what about my sister, how she don't have any home?
It's gonna be all f..cked up once she's gone

And I don't care about my father, no his woman's safe
No, I don't care about my father, no his woman's safe
Yeah, his money just surrounds him, keeping him at bay

I tried to look at him and it fell out of my chest
Yeah, I tried to look at him and it fell out of my chest
I'm gonna fill it up with alcohol, stain her dress

Tryin' to get your love is like tryin' to pull your teeth
Tryin' to get your love is like tryin' to pull your teeth
And I should knock you out, turn out the lights
Pull 'em out while you're asleep

And if you have my daughter I don't know what I will do
If you have my daughter I don't know what I will do
'Cause I'm gonna wanna hit her once she looks like you
