Crooked Teeth

Lyrics

It was one hundred degrees
 As we sat beneath a willow tree
 Whose tears didn't care, they just hung in the air
 And refused to fall, to fall
 And I knew I'd made a horrible call
 And now the state line felt like the Berlin Wall
 And there was no doubt about which side I was on
 ♪
 'Cause I built you a home in my heart
 With rotten wood and it decayed from the start
 'Cause you can't find nothing at all
 If there was nothing there all along
 No, you can't find nothing at all
 If there was nothing there all along
 ♪
 I braved treacherous streets
 And kids strung out on homemade speed
 And we shared a bed in which I could not sleep at all, woo-hoo, woo-hoo
 'Cause at night, the sun in retreat
 Made the skyline look like crooked teeth
 In the mouth of a man who was devouring us both
 ♪
 You're so cute when you're slurring your speech
 But they're closing the bar and they want us to leave
 And you can't find nothing at all
 If there was nothing there all along
 No, you can't find nothing at all
 If there was nothing there all along
 I'm a war of head versus heart
 And it's always this way
 My head is weak, my heart always speaks
 Before I know what it will say
 ♪
 And you can't find nothing at all
 If there was nothing there all along
 No, you can't find nothing at all
 If there was nothing there all along (no, you can't find)
 And you can't find nothing at all
 If there was nothing there all along
 There were churches, theme parks and malls
 There was nothing there all along
