"Jerks Of Attention" lyrics

"Jerks Of Attention"

There is no pain, my body's drained
I never should have had that fourth slice straight
We gathered 'round the lost and found
But my jerks of attention let me down

I took the first one
And I pulled it back
And what was once green
Had all turned black, it all turned black
And there was nothing left to say

I'm ten foot tall, the world's so small
I know it all when I'm wasted
And what you see inside of me
Has been set free when I'm wasted
Wasted

I'm getting there, my constant stare
And I don't think I'll move from this chair
We've got them both, Archers of Loaf
And the Stone Roses in the stereo

I took the first one
And I pulled it back
And what was once green
Had all turned black, it all turned black
And there was nothing left to say

I'm ten foot tall, the world's so small
I know it all when I'm wasted
And what you see inside of me
Has been set free when I'm wasted

I'm ten foot tall, the world's so small
I know it all when I'm wasted
And what you see inside of me
Has been set free when I'm wasted

Wasted, wasted
Wasted, wasted
Oh

Ten foot tall, world's so small
Know it all, wasted
What you see, 'side of me
Been set free, wasted

And I don't want to be straight
Don't want to be straight
And I don't want to be
Wasted, wasted, wasted, wa-wasted, down
