The Damn Shames - Fire in the Hole (Blackbird Studio Session) Lyrics

Ain't it a bummer when that new starts wearing off
And you have barely any gas left in the tank
Trying to make it somewhere way on past the hill
But I'm just doing circles, spinning my wheels
South of Plymouth County, doomsday on the rise
We're asking for the truth but I can't see it in their eyes
Money leads to power and power gets you laid
We've pulled the pin and swallowed that grenade
Yeah
Fire in the hole
Yeah
Fire in the hole
Barely stupid and hardly young
Got me strung up like a scarecrow in the dark
And all of this for nothing, nothing for it all
When you can't snuff it out with pills and alcohol
Tell me is it worth it? Cuz something has to give
Y'know it ain't the tables fault that you just can't afford the buy-in
Left or right side, no one has to know
Just snip the wire and watch for which one blows
Yeah
Fire in the hole
Yeah
Fire in the hole
Don't hitch your horse to a wagon of dynamite
Then be surprised when your bullshit comes to light
Ahh baby
Yeah
Fire in the hole
Yeah
Fire in the hole
We've given all we have to give
To get the shit end of the stick
We want "the life" and this ain't it
Lord if it comes to blows
Fire in the hole
