Lyrics for Hanging Out And Hung Up On The Line
Well the blues had a baby And the bastard couldn't sing So the priest hold the candle And the parents kissed the ring Someone shouted "Let's keep the afterbirth And throw the kid away" Yeah and I fried my brainsack For the pain I felt today So I go out and come in again So I go out and come in again So I go out and come in again See if I can get clean Come on split my head wide open Scoop out a little of my brain Need some identification Julian Cook, the very same Yeah and this is not a dingy world To set before the swine 'Cause it looks like I'm hanging out and hung up on the line Yeah The weather's getting warmer The ice caps are melting I got the whole blues of creation Snowing at my heels So I go out and come in again So I go out and come in again So I go out and come in again See if I can get clean Come on split my head wide open Scoop out a little of my brain Need some identification Julian Cook, the very same Yeah and this is not a dingy world To set before the swine 'Cause it looks like I'm hanging out and hung up on the line I looked in the mirror Stared at the shelf I said "Doctor, doctor, doc, I can't be myself Since 1904 This pathway's been just fine Why should I be hanging out and hung up on the line?" Why should I be hanging out and hung up on the line? Hanging out Hanging out Hanging out Hanging out This is not a dingy world This is not a dingy world This is not a dingy world This is not a dingy world This is not a dingy world This is not a dingy world This is not a dingy world to set before the swine 'Cause it looks like I'm hanging out and hung up on the line Looks like I'm hanging out and hung up on the line Looks like I'm hanging out and hung up on the line Looks like I'm hanging out and hung up on the line Looks like I'm hanging out and hung up on the line
