Got a fist full of hammers and a pocket full of screws
Might as well groove gotta keep it real loose
There's a chickenbone under m' ribcage and chickenbones in my stew
Might as well groove cock-a-fuckin'-doodle-doo
Samson got my Delilah even with his hair cut in a crew
Might as well groove no salve for the wound nothing left to prove
This old bird's not flying after you

With roses in their holsters Hallmark's painted all the violets blue
Might as well groove check out the true hues
Oil rainbows in the puddle seeping through the holes in my shoes
Might as well groove I know the road to choose
Moon's passed out on my porch with a brown bag full of booze
Might as well groove I don't need no light to see me through
One's more than two when I'm not counting on the likes of you

I've seen it in my face standing in a soup line of disgrace
Droppin' as I walkin' nothin's stoppin' me from hoppin' on that train
Shame has got me laid like old paper in a bird cage
Droppin' as I'm walkin' nothin's stoppin' me from hoppin' on that train
I've been saned and tamed contained and caned
While I've feigned and gained and waned and blamed

Traced your shadow on my wall waitin' for you to call
Droppin' as I talkin' nothin's stoppin' me from hoppin' on that train
Now my get-away car's here steer with fear to face the mirror
Droppin' as I talkin' nothin's stoppin' me from hoppin' on that train
I've been stoned and throned droned and loaned
I've been tied and tried defied and left on the side
Fingers lingered the old crow spat
Now your dog's wearing my hat
Yeah your pain accrues but these blues aren't news
Come on now there's just your soul left to lose

Flim-tinsel Romeo's got my Juliette in a swoon
Might as well groove get on the move
With their dollar store plastic trumpet they're trying to call the tune
Might as well groove ruin's comin' real soon
Chokin' on beef jerky philosophies while the dish beats up the spoon
Might as well groove sun's slidin' down the dune
get out of this cartoon
Spiral 'til it soothes and smooths it all away
