The Actual Goners - Coricidin Bottle Blues Lyrics

Paints her skin with cheap tattoos, luau girls and pistols to
Distract you as you wander through those coricidin bottle blues

Talkin' at me through her teeth, the birds outside all start to tweet
Cooped up in this basement suite till the daylight breaks you free

Cupid hearts and red balloons, the phosphorescence hum a tune
Lullabies to get you through, those coricidin bottle blues

Whippoorwills perch on her breast, smiling through the cocaine sweats
Says we ought to catch some rest, dances off to bed

Bottled ships and anchors too, the phosphorescence hum a tune
Lullabies to get you through, those coricidin bottle blues

You catch a glimpse of Innocence, just behind the recklessness
Each day brings another test, but the bell won't ring for you

Watch her pace around the room, the phosphorescence hum a tune
Lullabies to get you through, those coricidin bottle blues

Those coricidin bottle blues
