I could get a piece of meat from a barren tree
Nothing ever spoiled on me
You brought this, you dipshit
Nothing ever spoiled on me
That cloud stomps around my house
Does whatever it pleases
It teases me, what the hell?
Never was a baritone til you stepped in
Never dried my halters on the line
This hairdo's truly evil
I'm not sure it's mine
You're so tall, it's like I climb a waterfall
That cloud stomps around my house
Does whatever it pleases
It teases me
What I said was get me a drink, alright?
What am I supposed to sit and look at you all night?
All girls cry like I said
I don't know why
That cloud stomps around my house
Does whatever it pleases
It teases me, what the hell?
Never was a baritone til you stepped in
Never dried my halters on the line
This hairdo's truly evil
I'm not sure it's mine
You're so tall, it's like I climb a waterfall
