johnny gallagher - snaggletooth lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
scrawny little sprout with a snaggletooth
don’t know nothin’ about the truth
wild mane o’ hair and he’s feelin’ cool
aimin’ for mick jagger, but he looks like a tool

thinks the world owes him a great, big debt
but he ain’t seen nothin’ yet
mister know+it+all, but he’s flunkin’ math
so he heeds the call to cut his own path
[chorus]
i’m sorry mama, sorry dad
for every time i was a little jerk
but i’m learnin’ slow, that’s the way things go
[in every town?] but that’s just how it works
gotta forgive yourself, no matter how hard it hurts

[verse 2]
movin’ to the city with a rebel yell
got his sights fixed on the chelsea hotel
can’t afford the rent, so he movеs out to queens
with lint in his pockets and holes in his jeans

gеts a taste of success, starts drinkin’ it hard
feels like an indestructible start
runs out of steam like a hot+air balloon
starts wailin’ like a werewolf howlin’ at the moon

[chorus]
i’m sorry ladies, i’m sorry friends
who probably think that it was all my fault
but you have to know, it takes two to tango
i stepped on your toes, and you stepped on mine too
i forgive me, do you forgive you?

[bridge]
you can make a plan, follow it to a tee
and still end up miles from where you wanna be
you can have it all and feel empty inside
hold on tight, cause it’s a h+ll of a ride
you can beat back disease, [come on?] with the troops
get struck by lightning on your front stoop
you can try to make sense, you can scream and shout
give me a call if you ever figure it out

[verse 3]
scrawny little sprout ain’t so small anymore
infact, he’s two times the shadow that he was before
and on his bad days, man, he’s trying his best
sometimes he wishes that he knew a little less

and never did get that ged
but he’s got street+smarts and eyes that see
and now he knows a thing or two about the truth
but he still hasn’t fixed that snaggletooth
