Song 221: Dime Story

Dime Story is an unintentional pun. Maybe we all need to live a little.

G#m -> G#
Oh the cold night stays the same
G# -> A
Couldn’t get the face to shine
Oh the iron face again
Sent my papers in on time

Oh the cold face stares again
One dollar in, green and round
One dollar over coughing manhattan
Keeps you out of lost and found

C#m
I need a lift
C#m -> B
Your bed, my shrine
I cannot live
The starting line

Stuffed with pride and breakaway cables
I pulled up my tennis shoes
Ask for change he’s unstable
Ask for change in railway boots

Without shame in a mirrored flask
Anti-septic black and tame
I had to get the face to shine
I put my thumb into the rind

I need a lift
Your bed, my shrine
I cannot live
The starting line

One dollar without manhattan
Delilah always lives next door
Late at night you hear her suffer
Same as the night before

Oh the cold night stays the same
Couldn’t get the face to shine
Oh the iron face again
Sent my papers in on time
