stuart davis - jonah lyrics
the dogs are still expecting
your father is a general
benjamin’s a murderer
your sister is a sponge
your mother is worker
jonah, i ran into your mom
she isn’t aging very well
sometimes i think her face is gonna burst
cause hiding pain is work, and your mother is a worker
jonah, some thoughts about your sister
her eyes are always closed
ever since that day she’s held a certain pose
it’s not a coma, she’s the opposite of numb
some people soak pain up, and your sister is a sponge
and your mother is a worker
jonah, i still see ben
but if i bring your name up the conversation ends
cause he loaned you the shotgun you took up to the cabin
whatever people say, he only hears the words ‘benjamin’s a murderer’
your sister is a sponge, your mother is a worker
jonah, jonah, news about your dad
you thought he drank before
now he drinks, his body is at war and his stomach’s never full
cause your father is a general, benjamin’s a murderer,
your sister is a sponge your mother is a worker
jonah, they gave me your godd-mn dogs
i’m sick of what they do
they bark at everything until they see it isn’t you
cause the dogs are still expecting, your father is a general
benjamin’s a murderer, your sister is a sponge your mother is a worker
