fever dolls - all the best debts lyrics

so you stumbled and you fell in the dirt
and now you drink more than you make it to work
and say you’d pay a visit to see them but it’d make it worse

cause you’re panicked by the passing of time
and you’ll be d+mned if i’m the best you’ll find
well i guess i made a mess of your plans and made a mess of mine
but i’ve been blind, i’ve been blind

and i’m the fastest kid of the last+in crop
i came up fighting and i still ain’t stopped
i take the whiskey to rise and the sugar to go
i got all the best debts that a woman could owe
so when you tell them that you saw me tell them i took the long way out
tell them brooklyn, you burned me up just to turn me down

well i saw your lover standing out in the rain
wasted hours going down the drain
reciting every promise you made, line and indication you gave

well i’ve got a fear of making love in the dark
and getting near enough to break my heart
and i hear you met your conscience clearing up the boston bars
and i hear you got the money to steer into oncoming cars

well i’m the fastest kid of the last+in crop
i came up fighting and i still ain’t stopped
i’m the banshee you can’t see me come when you go
i got all the best debts that a woman could owe
so when you tell them that you saw me tell them i took the long way out
tell them brooklyn, you burned me up just to turn me down

would you talk back?
if they hit your jaw back?
would you crumble? would you crawl? would you grab ‘em by the collar and drag ‘em out on their ass

and i went to hollywood and laid on the ground
and i waited until i could make out the sound
i got a little bit courageous, calling all your neighbors out
janey, stop tearing up the heart i got and wearing me down

well i’m the fastest kid of the last+in crop
i came up fighting and i still ain’t stopped
i take the whiskey to rise and the sugar to go
i got all the best debts that a woman could owe
so when you tell them that you saw me tell them i took the long way out
tell them brooklyn, you burned me up just to turn me down
yeah, brooklyn, you burned me up just to turn me down

there’s a dream he’s had, and in the dream he’s found
that he can’t look up and he can’t look down
and there’s a girl who shouts from a corner shop
and a funeral procession goes up the block
and there’s a thought she has that she talks about
took 18 years to let it out
and i called the doctor when you broke your neck
and they put your picture in the yearbook credits
and i thought about you when i wrote this song
and i think about you when i play this song

(just to turn me –
just turn me down)

(i love you, baby i love you
if you want, i’d stop the clouds above you)

so when you tell them that you saw me tell them i took the long way out
tell them brooklyn, you burned me up just to turn me down
