Fat City (slight Return) Lyrics - Singles - The Twilight Singers

I musta been near, unclear 

It's dark as hell and hot in here 

But I'm ready for the stroll 

So release me so I can find 

The couple comes over, I fear 

That they'll lead me to the garden 

Where anything I want is close 

Everything I wanted most 

Nathan runs a little river 

Cathy gets high 

Joey got arrested when he messed up 

'Round about sixteen times 

Why you take from a giver? 

Why you gotta get high? 

Why you watch a car wreck, muthafucker? 

'Cuz it looks fun to die 

To die, to die, to die 

The ship it listed and things got twisted 

Bow down and get yourself lifted 

Party at the mansion, y'all 

Party on the day before the fall 

You all, better listen 

Don't question my volition 

The hard way, the easy way 

The only way, the lonely way 

Nathan runs a little river 

Cathy gets high 

Joey got arrested when he messed up 

'Round about sixteen times 

Why you take from a giver? 

Why you gotta get high? 

Why you watch a car wreck, muthafucker? 

'Cuz it looks fun to die 

To die, to die, is to fly 

That's why Cathy gets high 

That's why Cathy gets high 

That's why Cathy gets high 

That's why Cathy gets high 

Save yourself, you little sinner 

Path it up right 

Take the road less traveled 

Make sure you keep that shit all tight 

Save yourself, you little sinner 

Path it up right 

Take the road less traveled 

Make sure you keep that shit all tight 

All tight, all tight, all tight, all tight 

Goodnight 

Goodnight 

Goodnight 

Good night, goodnight
