laughing with a mouth of blood
Just like an amnesiac Trying to get my senses back (Oh, where did they go?)  Laughing with a mouth of blood From a little spill I took (Oh, what are you laughing at?)  See I traded my plot of land For a plane to anywhere (Oh, where do you go?)  And I can't see the future But I know its got big plans for me (Oh what does it see?)  All of my old friends aren't so friendly All of my old haunts are now all haunting me  Holed up at the motel ritz With a televangelist (Oh what did he say?)  At the bottom of a swimming pool With all the water out of it (How'd you get in there?)  I'm sending consolation prizes to my next of kin, allies (Oh, they'll be so thrilled)  I can't see the future But I know it's watching me (wonder what it sees)  All of my old friends aren't so friendly All of my old haunts are now all haunting me   Tell my sister that I miss her Tell my brother that it gets much easier  Tell my sister that I miss her Tell my brother that it gets much easier   All of my old friends aren't so friendly And all of my old haunts are now all haunting me  All of my old friends aren't so friendly And all of my old haunts are now all haunting me
