Stephanie Nilles - My Home Is the Mouth of a Shark Lyrics

It's been said
Hand-to-hand
Hand-to-mouth
Man-to-man
Ain't nobody put their baby in that boat
'les it's safer than the land

You keep your counsel
I'll bankroll mine
You take the high road
I'll walk the high wire
Ever the wanderer
The wanderer am I

Across the desert sands we roam
Jumpin' land mines, dodgin' drones
We're being hunted
In company and alone

Ever the wanderer
Ever the wanderer
Ever the wanderer
Ever the wanderer

Ever the wanderer
The wanderer am I
We be roamin' cross the sands
Like a band of vampires
Come for your water, your wallet
Your children, your wives
Ever the wanderer
Ever the wanderer

I ate my passport in the airport
Taste of metal in my mouth
Been like a homing pigeon over death camps
Tryin' not to look down

Oh can't we co-exist like former lovers
Passing strangers in the night
Looking skittish over our shoulders
(Keep your hands up in plain sight)

Across the desert sands we roam
Jumpin' land mines, dodgin' drones
We're being hunted
Even in our own homes

Ever the wanderer
Ever the wanderer
Ever the wanderer
Ever the wanderer

Ever the wanderer
The wanderer am I
We be roamin' cross the sands
Like a band of vampires
Come for your water, your wallet
Your children, your wives
Ever the wanderer
Ever the wanderer

My home is the mouth of a shark
My home is the mouth of a shark
My home is the mouth of a shark
My home is the mouth of a shark

My home is the mouth of a shark
My home is the mouth of a shark
My home is the mouth of a shark
My home is the mouth of a shark

My home is the mouth of a shark
Your mouth is the house of the shark
My home is the mouth of a shark
Your mouth is the house of the shark

My home is the mouth of a shark
Your mouth is the house of the shark
My home is the mouth of a shark
Your mouth is the house of the shark
