Chorus:
Smell the taste in my mouth and I swish it around
But then I spit it out
I'm not interested
Put my feet on the ground, I'm stepping out in the town
But then I turn back around
I'm not interested
No telling why, no telling when I'm feeling fine
But like a storm in the sky, a change in the wind I always change my mind
Jennifer had a bed, a bed made for 2
Jenny had her ex's names carved in her shoes
She said "it helps to wear their names
Deep into the ground."
She chants their names with every step
and hopes they come back around
Chorus
I heard a rumor whispered from my funky friends
But rumors gray these hairs and split those ends
I avoid keeping my ear pressed against the ground
The concrete's cold anyways
It just deadens all the sound
Chorus
