Dumb Lady
Robert Pollard
Looking down on a street of love
Jewelled, paved, foolsafe
Like fireflies and lightning bugs
They're the same thing, dumb lady
Maybe not
Others around
Shaving and dancing in the poor light
Confused, deranged
Leaping around in the short sight
To the next level of no way
You pushed me away, don't write me no more
Dread growing up, do you believe me now?
You lied about me around me, played me around
Cocaine crapshoots, need I say our love was tested
And now is lost in folly, a love both shallow and proud
So strong and loud, be happy, get high
Through the years though all our tears be gone
Dumb lady, do bare the tale
About me, I'm also blind
And with you it's always gonna rain
Always feel the same
