"The Other Shoe" lyrics
"The Other Shoe"
It's a beautiful morning
The sky is black as ink
The city's sleeping still
And soon they'll wake up to the stink
And soon they'll wake up
To the stink of life passing them by
Wake up and smell the stink of their lives
The garbage trucks are coming
To take your shit to the dump
You're smelling pretty now
Such a pretty little lump
A pretty little lump of flesh
Who's lost your way
Another night, another day
And when you sleep at night
Dreaming of the pretty things
Don't be too surprised
When the telephone rings
I'll be sitting here
Waiting for the other shoe to drop
I'll be sitting here
Waiting for the other shoe to drop
Thanks to deftonesfool37 for adding these lyrics.

The Dandy Warhols - "Sleep" Well, I could sleep forever,
But it's of her I dream.
If I could sleep forever,
I could forget about everything
If I could sleep forever.
If I could sleep forever.
If I could sleep forever,...
The Afghan Whigs - "Gentlemen" Your attention please
Now turn off the light
Your infection please
I haven't got all night
Understand
Do you understand?
Understand
I'm a gentleman
I stayed in too long
But she was the perfect fit...
Band Of Horses - "Cigarettes, Wedding Bands" The working man's day, we just piss it away
We sit out in the weather
Familiar he said, time soon breeds contempt
Wash your hands of it forever
Violence it ripped through the old dogwood fence
See...
Dinosaur Jr. - "Start Choppin'" There's no goin' back to that
I'm so numb, can't even react
Didn't say it's not ok
But we aren't dealin' the same way
I ain't tellin' you a secret
I ain't tellin' you goodbye
It's the last thing...
Built To Spill - "Liar" I wouldn't be a liar
No, I wouldn't be a liar
If I told you that
I wouldn't be a liar
When things are all you think of
And plans are all you make
And thoughts are all you dream of
Your falls are all...
