Radicals

Lyrics for Radicals

It's not that I never did tell you It's more that you should have just known That once you break it you've bought it And once you've bought it it's breakable In town at the bar there's a calendar From 1933 It's been hanging there for decades Since sobriety lost to reality Sometimes I sit in the corner And invent stories and all of them crimes Of pretty girls kidnapped by radicals That fall in love with them after a time Well, it's not that I never did tell you It's more that you should just've known That once you break it you've bought it And once you've bought it it's breakable Once you've bought it it's breakable At the edge of town where the streetlights drown And the highway melts into the dark Built me a shack with a porch out the back Where I sit and shoot bottles like question marks Sometimes you wonder at yourself And how it is you're still alive And done all them things you never thought Like kissing ass and calling it compromise In town at the bar there's an exit That leads back to something before Pretty girls who were kidnapped by radicals That took from them all that they stood for Well, it's not that I never did tell you It's more that you never did know That once you break it you bought it And once you've bought it it's breakable Yeah, once you've bought it it's breakable Yeah, once you've bought it it's breakable Yeah, once you've bought it it's breakable Yeah
