"Ice Night We're Having" lyrics

"Ice Night We're Having"

Who is that man on the back of the bus
Shouldn't let it get you dragged down so much
Who is that man on the back of the bus
Shouldn't let it get you dragged down so much

Educated dropout living in a vacation home
I guess you never know when the wheels will fall off
He's a happy old fella in the short-sleeved shirt
Telling us the stories of when he was at work
He's barking louder, tales get taller every time he does

Everybody listen up, I was a teenager
Got my first car and drove it over there
Someone cut the lights out, so you know
Drunk people from the Southeast, they talk slow

I'll keep living in the frame where you left me, love
I'll keep picking up the pieces of us
Well, how do y'all do, you gotta move
Fuck off, everybody, everybody

Laughing at the tough guy revival in Washington
It matters who you know, when you don't know anyone
We're staying outside or living in a car
Sleeping outside or laying on the floor
Space gets smaller, cash is shorter, past is catching up

Would everybody shut up, don't do me any favors?
Piss blind in the street, so I'm going to come home later
And the mess that you made is why we gotta go
Vampires in the dry heat, I don't think so

I'll keep living in the frame where you left me, love
I'll keep picking up the pieces of us
I'll keep living in the frame where you left me, love
I'll keep picking up the pieces of us, us
