Garbage Man - Rusted Root

Baby, there’s someone in your shirt

That’s not you, my lover

You’re somewhere in the dirt

And I’m the drive-by miracle

Coming to you curb-side

You sum' your garbage man

I’ve come to take all your misguided plans

And throw them all away

Yeah, away

We’re gonna throw things out

Maybe I burn them up, just to pull you out of your fire

I’m your garbage man

(Ooh, tonight) Baby, tonight

(Ooh, tonight) Things won’t come

(Ooh, tonight) Just right

To get to you there might have to be a showdown

I’m swallowed up by black holes

I’m coughing up my ancestors bones

Yeah, they’re standing at attention

They’re ready to rumble

Left, right

We’re gonna throw things out

Maybe I burn them up

Just to pull you out of your fire

I’m your garbage man

Is this your garbage can'

I need to throw these things out

Like your misguided plans

(Garbage man) Hmm, I’m your garbage man

When you’re star-lit, you’re star-lit

Distant fallin' stars

You’re so free here with me

But you’re gonna uncapture yourself

Free, free, to uncapture yourself

We made a whole world

Put out the trash tonight

Hear me out

We made a whole world

Put out the trash tonight

(Ooh, tonight) Maybe things will go just right

I’m gonna throw these things out

Maybe I burn them up, just to pull you out of your fire

I’m your garbage man

Is this your garbage can'

I need to throw these things out

Like your misguided plans

(Garbage man) Hmm, I’m your garbage man

(Garbage man) Is this your garbage can'

(Garbage man) I need to throw these things out

(Garbage man) Like your misguided plan
