Twist In My Sobriety

Fmi Bmi

All God's children need travelling shoes

Drive your problems from here

Fmi Bmi

All good people read good books

Now your conscience is clear

I hear you talk girl

Now your conscience is clear

Fmi Bmi

In the morning when I wipe my brow

Wipe the miles away

Fmi Bmi

I'd like to think I can be so willed

And never do what you say

I'll never hear you

And never do what you say

Look my eyes are just holograms

Look your love has drawn red from my hands

Bmi Fmi

From my hands you know you'll never be

More than twist in my sobriety

More than twist in my sobriety

More than twist in my sobriety

Fmi Bmi

We just poked a little empty pie

For the fun the people had at night

Fmi Bmi

Late at night don't need hostility

Timid smile and pause to free

Fmi Bmi

I don't care about their different thoughts

Different thoughts are good for me

Fmi Bmi

Up in arms and chaste the whole

All God's children took their toll

Look my eyes are just holograms

Look your love has drawn red from my hands

Bmi Fmi

From my hands you know you'll never be

More than twist in my sobriety

More than twist in my sobriety

More than twist in my sobriety

Fmi Bmi

Cup of tea take time to think yeah

Fmi Bmi

Time to risk a life for life for life

Fmi Bmi

Sweet and handsome Soft and porky

You pig out 'til you've see the light

Pig out 'til you've see the light

Fmi Bmi

Half the people read the papers

Read them good and well

Fmi Bmi

Pretty people Nervous people

People have got to sell

The news you have to sell
