  • I guess before Jed left he wrote some poems
    He didn't write 'em for anyone in particular
    I suppose I can show you guys one
    Okay, here it goes

    You said I'd wake up dead drunk, alone in the park
    I called you a liar
    But how right you were

    Air-conditioned TV land, twenty grand, walk to the bank
    With shakes from the night before
    Staring at the tiki floor

    Mitch
    High school wedding ring, keys are under the mats
    Of all of the houses here
    But not the motels

    I try to sing it funny like Beck, but it's bringing me down
    Lower than ground
    Beautiful ground

    Beautiful ground

    Beautiful ground

    Beautiful ground

    Beautiful ground, yeah

    Test tones and
    Failed clones and
    Odd parts made you Writer/s: JASON LYTLE
