"Fat City (Slight Return)" lyrics - THE TWILIGHT SINGERS

THE TWILIGHT SINGERS
"Fat City (Slight Return)"

I must have been near, unclear
It's dark as hell and hot in here
But I'm ready for the stroll
So release me so I can find
The couple comes over, I fear
That they'll lead me to the garden
Where anything I want is close
Everything I wanted most

Nathan runs a little river
Cathy gets high
Joey got arrested when he messed up
Round about sixteen times
Why you take from a giver?
Why you got to get high?
Why you watch a car wreck, mutherfucker
'Cause it looks fun to die?

To die
To die
To die

The ship it listed and things got twisted
Bow down and get yourself lifted
Party at the mansion, you all
Party on the day before the fall
You all better listen
Don't question my volition
The hard way, the easy way
The only way, the lonely way

Nathan runs a little river
Cathy gets high
Joey got arrested when he messed up
Round about sixteen times
Why you take from a giver?
Why you got to get high?
Why you watch a car wreck, muthafucker
'Cause it looks fun to die?

To die
To die
Is to fly

That's why Cathy gets high
That's why Cathy gets high

Save yourself, you little sinner
Path it up right
Take the road less travelled
Make sure you keep that shit all tight

Save yourself, you little sinner
Path it up right
Take the road less travelled
Make sure you keep that shit all tight

All tight
All tight
All tight
All tight

Goodnight
Goodnight
Goodnight
