Beck - I'm Down lyrics

I'm down, I'm down and this town is a nuisance It'll put your backbone all in a ruin And with the area code of a truant I'm fluent in the hazards of love, yeah listen I fed a warrant to a billy goat I fixed the spelling on a suicide note A get-well card from the holy ghost To a beggar who smells like a rose I'm down, I'm down and I feel like a loner There's a skyscraper city below her I wanna feed my heart to a cobra 'Cause nothing ever happens to me Alright, like a blessing disguised as a curse Like a sermon that's run out of words Like a cage that can't keep any birds I can't keep my arms around you I'm down I'm down, I'm down and this town is a backdrop A back road over a roadblock With a debutante in a tank top Who's teaching me how to be free Like a prayer in a personal ad Like a knife in a broken back Learn to love what you can't get rid of Before it gets rid of you I'm down I'm down I'm down I'm down
