Burn the River Dry - Jim White

Burn the River Dry - Jim White
Door is locked
No one's home
Frame is empty
Picture's missing
It throw that rock right through the window
Hey I know him he's a singer
Roam around another town
Looks like Phoenix Arizona
Borrow the car
From it's owner
That sleepy head he's dreaming the dreams
Of suburbia
Yeah suburbia
Me I don't care
I just pay what it takes to feel alive
'Cause somehow somewhere
Hell everyone I know is waiting here
The river dry
Waiting to
Burn the river dry
And nothing works
More than once
It keeps you restless always moving
Fretful searching for a brand new spanking form
Of deliverance
Movies stars heroin
Dreams of wild old f**king grandeur
Snap your fingers now you're famous
Close your eyes as you sell out
To all them suckers that you hate
Yeah them suckers that you hate
Me I don't care
I just pay what it takes to feel alive
To somehow somewhere
Everyone I know is waiting here
Here the river dry
Pa pa pa ra pa pa pa
Waiting to pa pa pa pa ra pa pa
Burn that river dry
Pa pa ra pa pa ra pa
Pa pa pa pa pa
Pa pa ra pa pa ra pa
Pa ra pa pa
Bam bam pa ra pa pa
Pa pa ra pa pa ra pa
Pa pa pa pa pa pa
Hands that once reached for heaven
Grabbing at the penny in the sewer
Smell of your soul burning on the skewer
And all that dirt that you have swallowed
The howling voice from the closet
You better run away because it
Seems to know a little bit too much about
All them shallow graves that you got buried
In the field of your experience
Me I don't care
Pa pa ra pa pa ra pa
I just pay what it takes to feel alive pa pa
Feel alive pa pa
Somehow somewhere
Pa pa ra pa pa ra pa
Hell everyone I know is waiting to here here here
Pa pa ra pa pa ra pa
Pa pa pa
River dry
River dry
Pa pa ra pa
Pa pa ra pa pa
Pa pa ra pa pa
Pa pa ra pa pa
Pa pa ra pa pa
Pa pa ra pa pa
