Ruby Fields - Muscle Lyrics

Ruby Fields Lyrics

"Muscle"

Northern River's alligators
With allergies to indicators
Keeps the smash repairman busy
Selling fireworks and stolen dogs
Well they're all safe now thank god
The ice box keeps them sweet

Overpriced tobacco
Anywhere that you go
Maybe I'll just settle for the heat
Overpriced tobacco
Anywhere that you go
Maybe I'll just settle for the heat

You're the muscle beating in my chest
My muscle who always protects
The night watchman in my bed
Bat in hand and out the door
That fox will rob me of my boards
But it's just possums on the shed

Overpriced tobacco
Anywhere that you go
Maybe I'll just settle for the heat
Overpriced tobacco
Anywhere that you go
Maybe I'll just settle for the heat

A bunch of crows
Edging features toothless birds
Pious preachers, failed dreams
A township built on fear
Across those train tracks, there's a world

And I see myself in them
I never found out who I am
Another tin disguised in gold
Another tin disguised in gold
And I see myself in them
I never found out who I am
Another tin disguised in gold
Another tin disguised in gold
Another tin disguised in gold
