New Slang
\nby: The Shins
\nGold teeth and a curse for this town were all in my mouth.
\nOnly, i don’t know how they got out, dear.
\nTurn me back into the pet that i was when we met.
\nI was happier then with no mind-set.
\nAnd if you’d ‘a took to me like
\nA gull takes to the wind.
\nWell, i’d ‘a jumped from my tree
\nAnd i’d a danced like the king of the eyesores
\nAnd the rest of our lives would ‘a fared well.
\nNew slang when you notice the stripes, the dirt in your fries.
\nHope it’s right when you die, old and bony.
\nDawn breaks like a bull through the hall,
\nNever should have called
\nBut my head’s to the wall and i’m lonely.
\nAnd if you’d ‘a took to me like
\nA gull takes to the wind.
\nWell, i’d ‘a jumped from my tree
\nAnd i’d a danced like the kind of the eyesores
\nAnd the rest of our lives would ‘a fared well.
\nGod speed all the bakers at dawn may they all cut their thumbs,
\nAnd bleed into their buns ’till they melt away.
\nI’m looking in on the good life i might be doomed never to find.
\nWithout a trust or flaming fields am i too dumb to refine?
\nAnd if you’d ‘a took to me like
\nWell i’d a danced like the queen of the eyesores
\nAnd the rest of our lives would ‘a fared well.
