Mongrels - Michael Malarkey

Feeling overgrown

And topsy turvy on the throne

You think you’ve won

But keeping me cornered

I may be skin and bone

And whatever soul still holds

Getting stoned

I’m loaded like a weapon tonight

I spin that wicked wheel

In the cemetery

Where one’s lit up where the other’s buried

In this everchanging dream

It’s way too much at stake

When you say you can relate

But think it’s strange

That I’m listening to country

And you hit me with that look

Like a sudden left hook

For the cannon blow

I spin that wicked wheel

In the cemetery

Where one’s lit up where the other’s buried

In this everchanging dream

Mongrels

Have another name

Mongrels

Are coming for me again

Mongrels

Have another name

Mongrels

Are coming for me again

So don’t let me out of your sight

Or I’ll be out outside tonight

I spin that wicked wheel

In the cemetery

Where one’s lit up where the other’s buried

In this everchanging dream

You say I kiss different

When I’m back from the tour

And you don’t know

What we’re still doing this for

And I know you know I know that line

But I know you know I know we’re fine

But still

We’re getting loaded like a weapon tonight

I spin that wicked wheel

In the cemetery

Where one’s lit up where the other’s buried

In this everchanging dream

Mongrels

Have another name

Mongrels

Are coming for me again

Mongrels

Have another name

Mongrels

Are coming for me again

So don’t let me out of your sight

Or I’ll be outside

Don’t let me out of your sight

Or I’ll be outside

Tonight

Loaded like a weapon tonight

Loaded like a weapon tonight

Loaded like a weapon
