Mainstream Lyrics - Lloyd Cole

When am I ever going to kick the curse? 

I took my medication I feel worse 

Swimming is easy when you're stuck in the middle of the Mississippi 

All you have to do is crawl 

Fifteen years a big shot in a one horse town 

Riding the elevator shafts with your hip flask and your sun bed tan 

You were born stupid mister you were born cheap 

All you have to do is crawl 

When are you ever going to see sense? 

I kick it in and you spit it right out again 

Swimming is easy when you're headed for the deep 

All you have to do is 

All you have to do is crawl 

One for the money baby two for the money 

Get back in that elevator Jack eat up your milk and honey 

Guess you were born lucky mister ain't life sweet? 

All you have to do is crawl 

When are you ever going to see sense? 

I kick it in and you just spit it right out again 

Swimming is easy when you're stuck in the middle of the Mississippi 

All you have to do is 

All you have to do is crawl
