Runner Ups Lyrics - Smoke Ring For My Halo - Kurt Vile

Hey, old man, how many times we gotta tell ya 

We don't want none, but where you been so long? 

Hey, girl, come on over 

That'll be just fine 

If it ain't workin', take a whiz on the world 

An entire nation drinkin' from a dirty cup 

My best friend's long gone, but I got runner ups 

When I'm walkin' my head is practically draggin' 

All I ever see is just a whole lotta dirt 

My whole life's been one long running gag 

Two packs of red apples for the long ride home 

Well, you know, baby

Sick of walkin' so you took a wrong way train 

Then you sat down and couldn't get up 

My best friend's long gone but I got runner ups 

My best friend's long gone but I got runner ups 

I don't know if it's real, but it's how I feel 

Don't know if you really came, but I feel dumb in askin' 

You shoulda been an actress, you so domineering 

Take two white gold earrings for your troubles now

When it's looking dark, punch the future in the face 

Instead of standing, I'm running around 

The sharpest tool in school don't even know what's up 

My best friend's long gone but I got runner ups
