I took to faces shooting stills and places I took nudes of our youngest boy I took two years to take his name over I beat ____ with ____'s toy I'd sing your praises to the devil's face But even fire couldn't dry you out You wouldn't know a good shot if you drank one Then throws up, throws punches, throws everybody out Shut up and while we're on the subject Of endless me and the what's I've done I didn't raise my boy to be your snapshot toy Not for you, not my son And as he made his point, he opened up my eye We're off and running (nothing) North to Nothing, yeah (nothing) I would not miss him (nothing) A perfect ending, there (nothing) Bet bottom dollar said as night day follows Ain't a thought you can call your own Just to vary someone's variation To re-show what's been shown (Ah) A call to mothers and my fast ex-lover Had the boys packing out by ten We moved in with Earl and his own two girls I took photographs of Spirograph, oh let's begin again But then Earl kept having nightmares About being tamed by dogs and fence And when the agents came and asked for him by name Well those dreams they made sense Just when I'm used to him he has to go bye-bye We're off and running (why pick on me?) North to Nothing, yeah (why pick on me?)
