Spitting Venom

We were spitting venom at most everyone we know
If the damned gave us a road map, then we'd know just where to go

Now let it drop, let it all drop, let it all drop
Oh, let it all fall off

Well, you were talking soda pop, you talk it quite a lot
The opinions that I do not give and the opinions I ain't got

So let it drop, let it all drop, let it all drop
Let it all fall off there, oh, oh

Well, you were spitting venom at most everyone you know
If you truly knew the gravity, you'd know which way to go

Well, let it drop, let it all drop, let it all drop
Oh, let it all fall off

My ears were pressing firmly right against your mouth to hear
When you tried to spit the venom out, your words were not so clear
Now, drop

Hold on to what you need, we've got a knack for fucked up history
Hold on to what you need, we've got a knack for messed up history

Well, we went downtown, and we sat in the rain
Both lookin' one direction and waiting for a train
Thought over, it's all over
I don't know who kept track, I didn't know there was a score
But, it looks like you're the winner; I ain't gonna play no more
It's over, game over

Well, we walked real stiff and our canes tapped the ground
You hit me with yours, and said, "You're gonna stare me down"
It's over, oh, it's over
You can say what you want but don't act like you care
It takes more than one person to decide what's fair
It's over, think it over

You were spitting venom at most everyone you know
If the damned gave you a road map, then you'd know just where to go

So we carried all the groceries in, while hauling out the trash
And if this doesn't make us motionless, I do not know what can
So's to say, what a rotten thing to say, such an awful thing to say
I didn't mean to bite you, sorry
What I always did, what I always did, what I always had to sling

So let it drop, let it all drop, let it all drop
Oh, let it all fall off
Let it drop, let it all drop, let it all drop
Oh, let it all fall off

Cheer up, baby, it wasn't always quite so bad
For every bit of venom that came out, the antidote was had
Cheer up, baby, it wasn't always quite so bad
For every bit of venom that came out, the antidote was had

Cheer up, baby, it wasn't really always quite so bad
