Nails For Breakfast, Tacks For Snacks Songtext / Lyric

Watch your mouth oh oh oh because

Your speech is slurred enough

That you just might swallow your tongue

I'm sure you would want to give up the ghost

With just a little more poise than that



Or was it God who chokes

In these situations, running late?

Oh no, he called in

Or was it God who chokes

In these situations, running late?

Oh no, he called in



The hospice is

A relaxing weekend getaway

Where you're a cut above all the rest

Sick and sad patients

On first name basis with all the top physicians






Prescribed pills

To offset the shakes

To offset the pills

You know you should take

It a day at a time



That's when you st-st-stutter something profound

To the support on the line

And with the way you've been talking

Every word gets you a step closer to hell

That's when you st-st-stutter something profound

To the support on the line

And with the way you've been talking

Every word gets you a step closer to hell



Prescribed pills

To offset the shakes

To offset the pills

You know you should take

It a day at a time



Prescribed pills

To offset the shakes

To offset the pills

You know you should take

It a day at a time



I am

Alone in this bed, house, and head

And she never fixes this

But at least she



I am

Alone in this bedroom

She never fixes this

But at least she



Prescribed pills

To offset the shakes

To offset the pills

You know you should take

It a day at a time



Prescribed pills

To offset the shakes

To offset the pills

You know you should take

It a day at a time



The hospice is

A relaxing weekend getaway

Where you're a cut above all the rest

Sick and sad patients

On first name basis with all the top physicians
