Time - Naked Dinner lyrics
It's two in the morning he's sitting in the diner Waitress stressed out with raccoon eyeliner He's dunking pound cakes in black coffee The cook is sick on your food he's coughing The voices in his head won't stop talking Humans aren't pretty on the inside, they're just blood and guts Most of them are roaches the rest are just nuts The cities full of police, bums and s*uts You could count the days by the dishes in the sink His motel sheets and the sky are pink It used to be kaleidoscope now its periscope eyes It used to be Lucy now its pollution in the sky Welcome to Interzone, home of misery I say hello to the man in the mirror that isn't me He waited half a cigarette, left the tip in his pocket He's lost his mind, paranoia's in the co*kpit I grabbed a toothpick on my way out I brushed off the doubt and I started to shout Why'd I come into this diner with the low down blues? Why'd I come to this diner when I was looking for you? I walk to my grave where the worms wait to greet me I sit naked I'm the dinner, eat me The worms eat the worms we all get devoured The dinner is naked and the truth is sour Naked Dinner, guns and alarm clocks Naked Dinner, the truth is a long shot When you come to dinner come fully naked It's just a body it's nothing sacred This is for the wood that discovered it was a violin This is for the man who got 2 new bracelets and the right for silence I think this bodies running out of mileage You could tell by the way I blink these concrete eyelids As another crooked cop ignores a crime A melancholy baby dies from an overdose of time The mugwamps are fighting in the diner It used to be red, white and blue Now its rubies, diamonds and sapphires Gold brick street, that's the path of a liar The fork in the road gave my motivation a flat tire As another monk takes a bath in fire We all pile the excuses higher The cops have electronic eyes That weigh your food and luggage I love it ill put no drug above it We don't care no more so f** it The freeway is a river of tin and steel Full of unhappy people, waiting for happy meals Yeah naked dinner I walk to my grave where the worms wait to greet me I sit naked I'm the dinner, eat me The worms eat the worms we all get devoured The dinner is naked and the truth is sour Naked Dinner, guns and alarm clocks Naked Dinner, the truth is a long shot When you come to dinner come fully naked It's just a body it's nothing sacred Here comes Dr. Benway straight out the S.O.A He's got the Guantanamo sk**s Got so much medication, he's playing dominos with pills Cigarette holes in his bathrobe, coffee stains on the floor He fills your cup with black water and asks if you want more Tio Sam, don't give a damn About no union or working man What they call justice, I call a joke They exhale the lies and disappear behind the tea smoke Give me 6 hours to chop down a tree I'll spend 4 sharpening my ax But what do you do when lies become facts Relax Gandhi, never attacked Relax King, never attacked Relax Chavez, never attacked Relax Diana Nash, never attacked Relax J, never attacked I'm naked at the table staring at an empty plate We both wait and we call it fate The greys all wait and they call it fate When the truth hits the plate like naked dinner I walk to my grave where the worms wait to greet me I sit naked I'm the dinner, eat me The worms eat the worms we all get devoured The dinner is naked and the truth is sour Naked Dinner, guns and alarm clocks Naked Dinner, the truth is a long shot When you come to dinner come fully naked It's just a body it's nothing sacred
