The Fiery Furnaces - Crystal Clear lyrics

At 4 o'clock Just after work I got my check I held my breath The phone rings tell 'em I ain't never here The over-under Made a blunder I gave my cell phone To my cousin He plays the threats I get to his friends at school I board the dog At Uncle Nicky's I put my hood up I have to run out You welched the bet I'm soaking wet too close to an OTB I took a train Got off at Trenton Bought a ticket A bus to Vinton Won't stop sweating till I get to Davenport On the bridge On the bus Bye-bye Moline Look at the water Filthy, dirty, cloudy, muddy, messy, mucky, crystal clear I got my palm read For $7.50 She looked me over I bought a crystal Filthy, dirty, cloudy, muddy, messy, mucky, crystal clear
