"Whiskey Jack" lyrics

"Whiskey Jack"

I'm gonna rip out a tongue
I stand too near the sun
I can't remember one time you wanted
Me to call you everyday
To send the ghosts away
Whatever people say
You won't forget me

Keep your poisons to yourself
Just stew in your own hell
I'll ring the waking bell and won't you hear it
Put the creature out of pain
Same old black eyes again
I'm in your fucking brain
And in your coma

Keep your poisons to yourself
Just stew in your own hell
I'll ring the waking bell and you won't hear it
Keep the creature out of pain
Same old black eyes again
I'm in your fucking brain
And in your coma

Whatever happened to angels?
Whatever happened to demons?
I can look into your life
And tell you like the smell of freedom

I'm gonna rip out a tongue
Don't wanna spoil the fun
Just wait until I come
You won't regret it
Put the piece on the barbeque
It's such a lovely view
We'll pick up a witches' brew
And we'll die laughing

I'm a friend of whiskey Jack
He's lying on his back
He's telling me to pack
He's inconsistent
Keep your secrets to yourself
I'll find somebody else
I'll stand here packing shelves
But not for long now

I'm a friend of whiskey Jack
He's lying on his back
He's telling me to pack
He's inconsistent
Keep your secrets to yourself
I'll find somebody else
I'll stand here packing shelves
But not for long now

Whatever happened to angels?
Whatever happened to demons?
I can look into your life
And tell you like the smell of freedom
Whatever happened to angels?
Whatever happened to demons?
I can look into your life
And tell you like the smell of freedom
