"Mama Shelter" lyrics

Take me to Mama Shelter
Or maybe someplace divey
Like Burgundy Room where the lights are red
And you're the one that's in my head
You're in my head

Take me to meet your parents
I'll bring the eucalyptus
Your dad's a butcher, your mom is the devil
They kicked you out and you moved on downtown (LA county)
And I gotta write this down
Yeah, yeah, yeah

Things haven't been going my way
But I'm not dead yet

I got a nervous habit where I ruin everything
La-la-di-di-da
I am a walking car crash and you just won't look away
La-la-di-di-da

All of the east of Sweden
Swim in the Baltic sea
Is that the one where you float on top
Who am I so old and drunk that I forgot
Way too loud, it's too much

I grew my beard out, my heads a mop
But I'm not Jesus yet

I got a nervous habit where I ruin everything
La-la-di-di-da
I am a walking car crash and you just won't look away
La-la-di-di-da

Mama Shelter
Mama Shelter
Mama shelter me

I don't wanna have another meltdown (Mama Shelter)
Everything looks better when I write it down (Mama Shelter)
I want you standing by my shoulder when I turn around (Mama shelter me)

(Find a way to laugh about things)
(Because it's a lot easier than getting angry or getting upset)

I don't believe in magic
Make believe in you
La-ah
I do believe in madness
Coursing through my veins
La-ah (fuck it)

I got a nervous habit where I ruin everything
La-la-di-di-da
I am a walking car crash and you just won't look away
La-la-di-di-da
