"jester" lyrics

One, two, three

I'm a jester in an empty castle
Dancin' for my sheep and cattle
Saw her in the back of my cell
We talk, now I'm fallin' faster
Damn, put down all the weapons in your hands
Baby, won't you take me for a dance
Baby, won't you give me a chance
I'll show you I can be your favorite man

I'm so damn nauseated, intoxicated
Every single day
I find it hard to explain it
Honestly I hate it
That I was born this way
Imagine escaping
Imagine escaping this pain
Imagine escaping
Imagine escaping my pain

I'm a jester in an empty castle
Dancin' for my sheep and cattle
Saw her in the back of my cell
We talk, now I'm fallin' faster
Damn, put down all the weapons in your hands
Baby, won't you take me for a dance
Baby, won't you give me a chance
I'll show you I can be your favorite man

It's my party, I'll die if I want to
Lost my mind with no clue where it's gone to
Aw, man
If I play nice with you would you come and see me tonight?
We could laugh or we could cry, we could do both if you like
No one knows me like the ceiling fan inside my room does
I don't want to hear about your problems
Shut the fuck up
Tell my mom she should've aborted me when she noticed a bump
Nothing nice to say so I'm always dishing apologies
So part of me
When I say
I don't care enough to please you

I'm a jester in an empty castle
Dancin' for my sheep and cattle
Saw her in the back of my cell
We talk, now I'm fallin' faster
Damn, put down all the weapons in your hands
Baby, won't you take me for a dance
Baby, won't you give me a chance
I'll show you I can be your favorite man
