    Lyrics
    COLD BLOOD

    if you’re angry
    eat with chopsticks
    they’re distracting
    if you hear me moaning
    through the floorboards
    don’t come downstairs
    don’t knock
    I’ve been eating cold sushi
    rice and wasabi
    drinking castor oil for days
    it keeps me lean
    keeps me leery
    keeps me vacant
    like a lot

    women love me, yes they do
    your daddy thinks I’m good for you
    Truman Capote slept here, kid
    on the trail of cold blood
    on the trail of cold blood

    if you meet me at the station
    next to locker 97
    you give me the suitcase
    I’ll give you the cash
    my sister’s got this bad rash
    I need this job
    this errand of kinship
    I am chasing her runaway skin

    women love me, yes they do
    your daddy thinks I’m good for you
    Truman Capote slept here, kid
    on the trail of cold blood
    on the trail of cold blood


    I like America
    covered with highways
    and rental cars to drive upon it
    trade his watch in San Francisco
    you’ll need a pistol
    but in Santa Fe pawn it

    I carry my world
    all of my goods
    in a hardshell guitar box
    If these songs don’t work
    I’ll switch to switch to car dealing
    I’m an auto mechanic card shark
    I’ll change my name
    lease an apartment
    buy a nightclub
    and have my suck
    cocked

    women love me, yes they do
    your daddy thinks I’m good for you
    Truman Capote slept here, kid
    on the trail of cold blood
    on the trail of cold blood
