Dogs & Rocks
Woke up swallowing sunlight
And the coffee's cold
I don't talk to my neighbors
But I like their roses
I can see through the window (ah)
TV preacher is on (ah)
I don't pick up the channel (ah)
So I imagine the song (ah)
Oh, Jesus talks to gods and rocks
That look like dogs
And He teleports back and forth
Between His odd jobs
You think I'm wasting time within my mind
I call it "rock and roll"
But when I look inside for neon lights
I see a big black hole
I am toys in a bathtub
And the plug's been pulled
Swirling down to the bottom
Where's the water go?
I ain't talking to no one (ah)
And no one's talking to me (ah)
I'm alone with no answers (ah)
I throw my hands up and scream (ah)
Oh, logs and bricks and rocks and sticks
Can break my bones
But it all depends how big your hands
And how hard you throw
You think I'm wasting time within my mind
I call it "rock and roll"
But when I look inside for neon lights
I see a big black hole
I don't look in the mirror
'Cause I'm getting old
Maybe if I don't see it
Then it isn't there
TV preacher is hocking
His holy water wares
You take my bed with bath water
To wash your swirly hair
Oh, Jesus talks to dogs and rocks
That look like dogs
And He teleports back and forth
Between His odd jobs
You think I'm wasting time, oh, in my mind
I call it "rock and roll"
But when I look inside for neon lights
I see a big black hole
Inside a big black hole
Inside a big black hole
And the coffee's cold
I don't talk to my neighbors
But I like their roses
I can see through the window (ah)
TV preacher is on (ah)
I don't pick up the channel (ah)
So I imagine the song (ah)
Oh, Jesus talks to gods and rocks
That look like dogs
And He teleports back and forth
Between His odd jobs
You think I'm wasting time within my mind
I call it "rock and roll"
But when I look inside for neon lights
I see a big black hole
I am toys in a bathtub
And the plug's been pulled
Swirling down to the bottom
Where's the water go?
I ain't talking to no one (ah)
And no one's talking to me (ah)
I'm alone with no answers (ah)
I throw my hands up and scream (ah)
Oh, logs and bricks and rocks and sticks
Can break my bones
But it all depends how big your hands
And how hard you throw
You think I'm wasting time within my mind
I call it "rock and roll"
But when I look inside for neon lights
I see a big black hole
I don't look in the mirror
'Cause I'm getting old
Maybe if I don't see it
Then it isn't there
TV preacher is hocking
His holy water wares
You take my bed with bath water
To wash your swirly hair
Oh, Jesus talks to dogs and rocks
That look like dogs
And He teleports back and forth
Between His odd jobs
You think I'm wasting time, oh, in my mind
I call it "rock and roll"
But when I look inside for neon lights
I see a big black hole
Inside a big black hole
Inside a big black hole
