lyrics

I got fish hooks on my face
So once I get 'em, they can't go
She's all tangled up in lace
Laying in the summer's glow
Sounds like a true love story
Sounds like a true love story

I got fingers on my cheeks
And they raise them way up high
See white pearlies underneath
Smile stretching to the sky
Sounds like a real horror story
Sounds like a real horror story

I know that you think I'm strange
But I haven't changed a bit
Baby since you quit
Since you quit me

I saw the future in my lap
Staring through a deck of cards
I was living off of scraps
Measuring my life in yards
Sounds like a real sad story
Sounds like a real sad story

I was working for the land
It was getting pretty far
Turning buildings into sand
And every grain into a star
Sounds like a real nonsense story
Sounds like a real pointless story
Sounds like a pointless story

I know that you think I'm lame
But you haven't spit the same old spit
Baby since you quit
Since you quit me

What a pointless story
Whistling through the trees
Such a pointless story
Is gonna drag me down to my knees

What a pointless story
Ringing through the eves
Such a pointless story
Is gonna pull me down to my knees
