Old 97's
"Book Of Poems"


Rowboat lightning I kissed her yeah it didn`t mean a thing
Seems like years ago it was yesterday
Fire drill yell freeze don`t hang around long face disease
I got a book of poems that`s gonna set you free
Well it`s bad luck and it`s a hard luck story
And I`m sorry I ain`t sticking around
I got a real bad feeling that a book of poems ain`t enough
Well it`s a sick world and sixteen days
I got nightmares every night
I got a real bad feeling that a book of poems ain`t enough
Hardcore uptown not the kind of place you wanna settle down
I only walked her home but that was bad enough
Two trains yell freeze it was a head-on cold now it`s a love disease
I got a book of poems you gotta see to believe
