Got a house on my back, pushing me over
making me weak on my feet
And a head on my shoulders, makes me uneasy
making me dizzy for weeks
You got me on a weak day
you got me on a bad time to talk.
A screw loose and rolling into a pile in the corner
I thought I should warn you
verse 2
I got a shark at my ankles hung by a tightrope
I'm scrappy/unhappy again
And that I'll never last like this, it makes me too tired
I'm loaded on vodka, two straws and soda
You got me on a weak day
you got me on a bad time to talk.
but you got me on a weak day
you got me at the worst time of all
BRIDGE 1
I'm on over, filled up and far gone
I tried to warn you, but that's not my job
'cause somebody took me down from on the top shelf
it couldn't get worse I say to myself
and I've got my head screwed on so tight it hurts
sometimes it don't work so I got the prescription
to take the time off, make it unravel, go out and travel for days
bring back my stories, stopping your worries, I'm trying to keep them at bay
You got me on a weak day
you got me on a bad time to talk.
but you got me on a weak day
you got me at the worst time of all
BRIDGE 2
Get me when I'm soft, and my shoes falling off, and
I'll make my way back again
(solo)
You got me on a weak day
you got me at the worst time of all
I'm not feelin' well, I'm cracked like a bell
I'm shot like a shell to pieces.
