Lyrics for Checkout Blues

I've got something Maybe i should tell you I may check out At any given time Things won't get better Until they get much worse Is the curse stronger than me Or am i stronger than the curse Everyone is scared of me And i'm scared of me too Never know just what i'm gonna do Heads up, kittens Everything is bad The sky is dark now But it's the best dark i ever had Hang on to a little thing And let it guide the way Bring it with you to Another day I've got something Maybe i should tell you I'm hanging on here And i'm really gonna try Things won't get better Until they get much worse Am i stronger than the curse
