lyrics

Officer Brady, do you need a sample of my blood?
Don’t you worry,
don’t you worry,
if I cracked the bottle or popped a pill
when they drew my blood I’d be real still
and you’d be glad you wrote my name in pencil.

I lost the game on which I waged everything
aint got a penny to throw in a wishing well
or in a grave with my name
Nobody looking for a felon and I guess I understand,
so I’m dirty dancing for a stranger
with his gun in his hand.

Officer Brady, do you read the paper in the morning?

Cause I’ve been reading books
that tell me I don’t need
anything
to be free
and I’ve been reading books
that tell me I don’t need
anything
to be happy
to be happy

Officer Brady, do you see me naked now?
Don’t you worry,
don’t you worry
cause I got a prescription to fill
it’s just a different kind of chemical
just another blanket to spare me from the chill
of all the things I can’t face, I feel this rage in my veins
and medicine can only paint over what wont erase
feels like the sky covering Hell is just the ground on which I’m standing
I’m dancing for a stranger with his gun in his hand

Officer Brady, do you read the paper in the morning?

Cause I’ve been reading books
that tell me I don’t need
anything
to be free
and I’ve been reading books
that tell me I don’t need anything
to be happy
and I’ve been reading books that tell me
this world’s gone mad with me
this world’s gone mad with me
We’ve both gone mad
