Irma Thomas - Flightless Bird, American Mouth lyrics
I was a quick, wet boy
 Diving too deep for coins
 All of your street light eyes
 Wide on my plastic toys
 Then when the cops closed the fair
 I cut my long, baby hair
 And stole me a dog-eared map
 And called for you everywhere
 Have I found you
 Flightless bird, jealous, weeping
 Or lost you, American mouth
 Big pill looming
 Irma Thomas - Flightless Bird, American Mouth - http://motolyrics.com/irma-thomas/flightless-bird-american-mouth-lyrics.html
 Now I'm a fat house cat
 Nursing my sore, blunt tongue
 Watching the warm, poisoned rats
 Curl through the wide fence cracks
 Pissing on magazine photos
 Those fishing lures
 Thrown in the cold and clean
 Blood of Christ mountain stream
 Have I found you
 Flightless bird, grounded, bleeding
 Or lost you, American mouth
 Big pill stuck going down
