Nail in the Head

from the album Lovelyville

lyrics written by Hugh Swarts


I'm on the inside
It takes a nail in the head to make him understand
That the shortest way there is the one he can see
But it gives him something to do

See that guy, he's a lot like me, he's a lot like me, he's dumb as hell
See that guy, he's a friend of mine, he's a friend of mine, he's dumb as hell

Put on ice again this time...
Put on ice again this time for good

I'm on the inside
The shortest way there is the one I avoid
I take my time and make sure that it lasts
I don't want to get there too soon

See that guy, he's a lot like me, he's a lot like me, he's dumb as hell
See that guy, he's a friend of mine, he's a friend of mine, he's dumb as hell

Put on ice again this time...
Put on ice again this time for good
