Cause - Rodriguez

[00:02.00]Cause
[00:08.00]Rodriguez
[00:31.00]Cause I lost my job two weeks before Christmas
[00:43.00]And I talked to Jesus at the sewer
[00:48.94]And the Pope said it was none of his God-damned business
[00:57.34]While the rain drank champagne
[01:02.53]My Estonian Archangel came and got me wasted
[01:09.08]Cause the sweetest kiss I ever got is the one I've never tasted
[01:21.43]Oh but they'll take their bonus pay to Molly McDonald,
[01:36.87]Neon ladies, beauty is that which obeys, is bought or borrowed
[01:45.78]
[01:54.08]Cause my heart's become a crooked hotel full of rumours
[02:06.02]But it's I who pays the rent for these fingered-face out-of-tuners
[02:19.11]and I make 16 solid half hour friendships every evening
[02:31.15]Cause your queen of hearts who is half a stone
[02:37.24]And likes to laugh alone is always threatening you with leaving
[02:44.36]Oh but they play those token games on Willy Thompson
[03:00.04]And give a medal to replace the son of Mrs. Annie Johnson
[03:17.27]Cause they told me everybody's got to pay their dues
[03:22.72]And I explained that I had overpaid them
[03:30.12]So overdued I went to the company store
[03:35.21]and the clerk there said that they had just been invaded
[03:43.26]So I set sail in a teardrop and escaped beneath the doorsill
[03:55.31]Cause the smell of her perfume echoes in my head still
[04:21.41]Cause I see my people trying to drown the sun
[04:26.50]In weekends of whiskey sours
[04:34.60]Cause how many times can you wake up in this comic book and plant flowers?
