jeff tweedy - she's a jar lyrics
she’s a jar
with a heavy lid
my pop quiz kid
a sleepy kisser
a pretty war
with feelings hid
she begs me not to miss her
she says forever
to light a fuse
we could use
a handful of wheel
and a day off
and a bruised road
however, you might feel
tonight is real
when i forget how to talk, i sing
won’t you please
bring that flash to shine
and turn my eyes red
unless they close
when you click
and my face gets sick
stuck, like a question unposed
just climb aboard
the tracks of a train’s arm
in my fragile family tree
and watch me floating inches above
the people underneath
please beware the quiet front yard
i warned you
before there were water skies
i warned you not to drive
dry your eyes, you poor devil
are there really ones like these?
the ones i dream
float like leaves
and freeze to spread skeleton wings
i p-ssed through before i knew you
i believe it’s just because
daddy’s payday is not enough
oh i believe it’s all because
daddy’s payday is not enough
just climb aboard
the tracks of a train’s arm
in my fragile family tree
and watch me floating inches above
the people underneath
she’s a jar
with a heavy lid
my pop quiz kid
a sleepy kisser
a pretty war
with feelings hid
you know she begs me
not to hit her
