lyrics

I’m ok that your shit eating band has nothing nice to say about me
And when we break up, you won’t bother with an online obituary
At our last show there will be no white man parade
No farewell to good times and piss weak promises that these memories won’t fade

It speaks of this scene that so many can see themselves in these shit eating words, sung out of tune by a smug self congratulating shit eating country turd.

I know that I’m a small man
I know where I go wrong
In thinking that an empty vessel can deliver emotion in a song

But good chords don’t make good songs
Good chords won’t work at all
If they’re played by soulless fingers
Standing with local heroes to fool you that they’re tall


I promise I’ll really try to stop being such a judgmental prick
If you can throw some song at me that really sticks
If you can give an idea to roll with, if you can speak something that speaks to me, if you can make me feel something
