Chicken Bones - John Grant

When I got out of my bed this morning

I noticed that it didn’t have a right side

And my head feels like it’s filled to the top

With pop and rocks and cyanide

There’s an earthquake coming and you think you know

Where it started, but it started very long ago

I need a mongoose baby, and some calgon to take me up outta here

Some days just chicken bones

You’d better fuck off now, you’d better leave me alone

Cos I’m about to explode, just like a wonderbread bomb

And I don’t care what I know, because I can’t be wrong

Some days just chicken bones

You’d better fuck off now, you’d better leave me alone

Cos I’m about to explode, just like a wonderbread bomb

And I don’t care what I know, because I can’t be wrong

Yes I know why you need it, cos your car broke down

And you wanna take the next bus outta this town

But if anybody’s getting on the bus, dog, it’s gonna be me

I know I don’t need what you’ve got for me Baby I do feel ready for me You’d better watch out sugar, cos I’m about to get my old spice on Some days just chicken bones

You’d better fuck off now, you’d better leave me alone

Cos I’m about to explode, just like a wonderbread bomb

And I don’t care what I know, because I can’t be wrong

Some days just chicken bones

I’m all jacked up on DC at my place alone

And I don’t care what you think about my attitude

Because I can’t be bothered with the likes of you

Some days just chicken bones

You’d better fuck off now, you’d better leave me alone

Cos I’m about to explode, just like a wonderbread bomb

And I don’t care what I know, because I can’t be wrong

Some days just chicken bones

I’m all jacked up on DC at my place alone

And I don’t care what you think about my attitude

Because I can’t be bothered with the likes of you
