Spent on Rainy Days

DANIEL, OBERST

I wish I saved it for rainy days,
'Cause they're the hardest to stay dry.
Got no self control,
I'm always beggin' into telephones.
And then I,
I bought a little from my brother's friend,
Yeah, well just to get me by.
I don't trust his cup,
The effect's never as high as the markup.
I think I'll print it in the personals,
That I'm looking for a match.
Someone to light me up,
Someone to burn the proof of the things that I've done.
Each day there's hours,
skip like a stone.
I just crawl in a bag,
I'm gonna live my life like somebody's shadow.
I know I'm lazy with the little things,
I mean I never held a door.
But I still loved you more,
Then anyone; Since or before
You're always saying that I owe you one,
Well lets consolidate this debt.
Get on a payment plan,
I'll pay compliments, you can still treat me bad.
But, now this isn't getting easier,
to leave you and this town behind.
I'll do some travelin',
Once I'm gone tell all our friend you've got even
I felt like an object, been set aside
You know, I'm back on the shelve.
Not locked in the drawer.
I'm mint in the box,
But you'd still sell me for cost.
Pull out a parachute.
A blanket on top of you.
The window you're looking through.
Pull out a parachute.
Pull out a parachute.
