The Smell of Bad Milk

from Coin Toss Timelines by Little Big Toe

/

lyrics

Boxed up antique dust collection
Mucus clogs up your sinuses
Locks without keys just sit idle
Migraine headache earplugs broke off in my skull
Fingernails scratch dirt, bathed in hurt
bit my lip, bleeding gums and looked into the sun
my eyes burned, I turned red and bit into my tongue
Worms are fed, bloodshed is always a must

Carnival clown paints smiles and frowns for rainier days
Stuffed animal door prizes cost a pretty penny

Old men drive slow in the fast lane
Apparently there’s no hurry
The smell of bad milk in my coffee
A dollar and 65 cents down the drain
And I told him to keep the change
The hair on my arms stand on pedestals
Shrink my stomach down, one bite and I’m full
The fastest meal in red, white and blue

Carnival clowns paints smile and frowns for rainier days
Stuffed animal door prizes cost a pretty penny
Infomercials paint pictures and thrive on insomnia
A memorized credit number
60 seconds – new born

Race in circles ,
If God exists, was it meant for heavy machines to drive up on a tailgate
Or am I just being cynical, I’ve always been - always will
Bad habits don’t just break themselves

There’s a buzzing in my ear. If the phone rings I’m not here
Cuz I’m out of batteries, let me know when the coast is clear
I’ll sneak out the window, take each ladder rung real slow
As not to make a sound, and freeze in headlights like a deer

Carnival clowns paint frowns and smiles for rainier days
Stuffed animal door prizes cost a pretty penny
A running shoe without laces, ankle turned on its side
I’ve loaded up all my ammo, but I can’t hurt a fly
