B12

Happy hour, try-me button, rope and switch Whatever the opposite of a wonderful time is Not for them, not for you, but for me Not for them, but for me Give whatever, got whatever, bought and sold Eating vitamin B12 and bread around the spots of mold Someone I, someone I once knew Dancing naked in the mirror I am not a piece of garbage I'll tattoo that in reverse on my neck and face and arms Not for them, not for you, but for me Not for you, but for me Daddy's chopping trees, cursing the sky And my momma's manic baking 'till it's safe to go outside Just to warm the dusty plate, empty room Quite the holiday or two We don't dream these days, we think out loud It hasn't rained in twenty years Our clothes are made of grasshoppers now Someone I, someone I once knew Someone I once knew The bees are white and all the sky's red as a sore The World Record Oldest Tree is not the oldest anymore Don't regret not getting your degree Wouldn't do much anything
