Schooner - My Friend's Band lyrics

My friend's band Is better than mine but no one goes To see him play They go to watch him half the time But stay until it gets too late Some are fun and some are fine And some you shouldn't have to pay But mostly what they do for me... Let's say the purpose is you've already promised yourself Say that it's all just a matter of personal health Call it a letter delivered by somebody else Caught there you stand with your hands shaking like shifting land But mostly what they do for me... Just for starters i don't like you corner yourself And it's not just the way that you dust off the books on your shelf You can call it a work or a lyric a statement of hell String your demands out and sink in a scene filled with sand It's mostly what they do for me
