Lyrics

I spend a lot of time at the house It’s becoming something like a cult of my things Together we sing in search of what the hurtin’s about Turns out it’s somewhat of a tumultuous thing So I make my way down to the bar Lately it’s the only place I like to go when it rains But someone’s been fuckin’ with the jukebox again Now it only plays the Sultans of Swing (now it only plays the Sultans of Swing) I’m sure there’s something of use deep down In a rubber band corner of my junk drawer heart I just rarely ever open the thing (I just rarely ever even open the thing) Madeline moved herself to town last fall Without telling or asking That was not my bad Now she’s gone and locked herself in the bathroom Fussin’ and cryin’ About a thought I had Her daddy was a hypnotist Her mother was a metronome Her mortal coil is not so much a curse As it is a stepping stone She knows there’s something of use deep down In a rare coin corner of her junk drawer heart She’s really made a mess of it though (ahh, she’s really gone and made a mess of it though) I spend a lot of time at the house I can admit that maybe certain parts of me have changed And Madeline moved herself back to the city And yes I guess perhaps I’m partially to blame I had the thought of headin’ back to the bar But something deep inside of me starts to refrain Someone’s been rifling through the junk drawer again And things get kind of tangled when Your heart’s rearranged Its like chewin’ on an apple in an archery range Maybe there’s something or use deep down In the matchbook bottom of my junk drawer heart Maybe there’s nothing there but joker cards and keychains (nothing but joker cards and keychains) Nothing but joker cards and keychains My things and I, we’re singing “smoke is just an unspoken apologv from a match” My Madeline I’m down here tryin’ to take the whole damn jukebox apart One 45 at a time I know there’s something of use deep down In a rubber band corner of my junk drawer mind I just don’t know if find it in time I just don’t know if I’ll ever find it in time I just don’t know if I’ll ever find it in time
