Snow piled on tables, up on scales, into bags Late night beer and smoke Too sleepy and awake Two sleepy and awake Crazy eyes over eggs, crazy eyes like mine Elote from a street cart, too much beer for the time At hand Night time pa**ed by me again Phone calls that should never be made Phone calls that speed last night into today So, where will you be in ten years?

Under my own skin This is the part where you don't say This is the part where you don't stay
