Lyrics
I sold my X-ray vision just to buy a beat-up Ford
Now it breaks down when you kick the door
I guess it runs, but I thought it would mean more
I never thought about that before
So I hibernate till April with a whisky in my hand
Watch a potted plant on the TV stand
Things ain?t really goin? like I planned
Feels like quicksand
?Cause I?m sinkin? into the floor
CHORUS:
Well I don?t know if I?m goin? down
but this sure don?t feel like up.
Now it?s rushin? past me at the speed of sound
But I can?t turn around, or get up.
Well my memory?s getting? soggy
and there?s smoke rings in my mind
I got a bark, but I can?t bite
I really think I better stay inside
and close my eyes
while I?m sinkin? into the floor.
Yeah, I?m sinkin? into the floor.
CHORUS ? SOLO (verse) ? CHORUS
