I awoke before dawn just like a broken dream
Saw the sorry early worm heard his tiny little scream
Licked my wounds and bore the wear hated myself and combed my hair
Oh how the sun rose to my cry
Jesus don’t know why
My alarm clock played a song about how the English finally won
Thanks to George Harrison I puked and put my panties on
If you wall your little heart if you tarry
The creeping tether especially in your cave cabal
If you look the double take or be respondent
Of the style sex interest that cleaves and mends
Do the funny dance take all that clumsy fortune
Exempt are the dead be wary traveler
Fellows remember what mama taught you
Girls don’t worry whether daddy will catch you
Don’t die up there with the rope on the rafter
Don’t slyly impress with cash and curry
Don’t talk to me ever be vital
Somewhere between the scamp and the scion
I awoke before dawn just like a broken dream
Saw the sorry early worm heard his tiny little scream
Licked my wounds and bore the wear hated myself and combed my hair
Oh how the sun rose to my cry
Jesus don’t know why
My alarm clock played a song about how the English finally won
Thanks to George Harrison (Ringo Paul and John) I puked and put my panties on

Jim, I'm loving this album! Sounds so good. I don't think the pedal steel was on the last versions of these tracks I heard. It's great! Kudos on a lovely record. Ben Armstrong
