Lyrics
I WISH MY LIFE WAS WOMEN BEER AND LIQUER
IVE SQUANDED THE STREETS BEGGED STEALED AND LITTERED
SCONDERED THE NIGHTS BONE CHILLED AND BITTERED
ILL TELL YOU THE TALE OF A MAN BY THE RIVER
HIS SKIN WAS SO WHITE HE MADE YOU JUST SHIVER
HE CRAWLED THROUGH THE NIGHT BEGGED RAPED AND SLITHERED
I WILL SHOW YOU THE WAY TO GO HOME
TAKE IT AND LEAVE ME ALONE
JUST LIKE THE MAN BY THE RIVER
HE TOLD ME TO TAKE ON THE TRUTH
I NEVER DID LISTEN TO YOU
HE DIED IN THE DITCH BY THE RIVER
WE'LL DRIFT THROUGHT THE FOG ON A BOAT ON A RIVER
SAILED TO THE SHORE WE CAN DELIVER
DREAMS THAT WERE ALL GONE
BONES CHILLED AND BITTERED
I FEEL MY LIFE WAS DRUGS DRINK AND LIQUER
I'LL TELL YOU THE TALE OF A MAN BY THE RIVER
HE CRAWLED THRUOGH THE NIGHT BEG RAPED AND SLITHERED
I TOOK YOU FOR A FOOL FOR I AM TO BLAME
YOU SHELTERED ME FROM HARM AND KEPT ME SO SAFE
THE MAN BY THE RIVER
I THOUGHT HE WAS DEAD
IM FEELING NO ANGER
JUST TAKE MY LIFE INSTEAD
YOU KNEW I WAS A FOOL BOY
FOR I AM TO BLAME
YOU SHELTERED ME FROM HARM
AND KEPT ME SO SAFE
IVE SQUANDED THE STREETS BEGGED STEALED AND LITTERED
SCONDERED THE NIGHTS BONE CHILLED AND BITTERED
ILL TELL YOU THE TALE OF A MAN BY THE RIVER
HIS SKIN WAS SO WHITE HE MADE YOU JUST SHIVER
HE CRAWLED THROUGH THE NIGHT BEGGED RAPED AND SLITHERED
I WILL SHOW YOU THE WAY TO GO HOME
TAKE IT AND LEAVE ME ALONE
JUST LIKE THE MAN BY THE RIVER
HE TOLD ME TO TAKE ON THE TRUTH
I NEVER DID LISTEN TO YOU
HE DIED IN THE DITCH BY THE RIVER
WE'LL DRIFT THROUGHT THE FOG ON A BOAT ON A RIVER
SAILED TO THE SHORE WE CAN DELIVER
DREAMS THAT WERE ALL GONE
BONES CHILLED AND BITTERED
I FEEL MY LIFE WAS DRUGS DRINK AND LIQUER
I'LL TELL YOU THE TALE OF A MAN BY THE RIVER
HE CRAWLED THRUOGH THE NIGHT BEG RAPED AND SLITHERED
I TOOK YOU FOR A FOOL FOR I AM TO BLAME
YOU SHELTERED ME FROM HARM AND KEPT ME SO SAFE
THE MAN BY THE RIVER
I THOUGHT HE WAS DEAD
IM FEELING NO ANGER
JUST TAKE MY LIFE INSTEAD
YOU KNEW I WAS A FOOL BOY
FOR I AM TO BLAME
YOU SHELTERED ME FROM HARM
AND KEPT ME SO SAFE

Magnetic. Very cool sound, wonderfully swirling lyrics twisting in on
themselves so that the singer and the subject become convolutedly
connected, as if the whole thing is a drunken dream. Fascinating. If I'd
anything, it would be a string type bass to add bottom and menace, as
well as grace and a jazz-like 6/8 drive. Cool track.
