Zita Swoon - Stamina lyrics

I argued with a wounded man He saying so And me saying: "Why can't the beer in my gla** Stop to fizz?" That insane hiss! He said: "Drink up boy It takes a whole lot a lot When you're up to your neck in This!" Now there are demons all around me Saying I should taste some of what freedom really is And that I shouldn't resist The wealth Of this oblivion I used to play with toy guns and toy knives But my daddy He never thought me how to k** He told me how to take the blame But my daddy He didn't teach me how to k** I was told to be discreet And to be able to take an insult I was so discreet nobody noticed me momma I was told to fear And fear alone Would help me what to choose So I dreamed myself to solitude And I left behind my family and my kin I pack my bags And I go slide back to my mother To hide in her shack From this a Fighting and fussing I was raised on meat and alcohol It don't do any good at all I went clips Eclipse But I ain't did no I ain't had no I ain't coming back It's amazing how only a little faith Can point someone in one peculiar direction But how mush it takes for people to admit They were wrong And to renegotiate their intentions Or how quickly they irritate If you only mention That only 2-3-5 changes To their daily ways Could make a whole lot a difference In the chain of days In time and space I hope I won't get busted Cause I done no wrong But of course You never know What change might come In morality Or economy Ecology Sexuality Or any other matter On the one hand Or on the other hand In my land Or your land Makes me understand That nobody really knows Which way things go And that even the river must flow Up stream sometimes Consumption! Beep beep! Watusi!
