Acid Tongue Lyrics

by Jenny Lewis

[Verse 1]
I went to a cobbler
To fix a hole in my shoe
He took one look at my face
And said, "I can fix that hole in you"
I beg your pardon
I'm not looking for a cure
I've seen enough from my friends
In the depths of the God-sick blues

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e117082-jenny_lewis~acid_tongue_lyrics.html ]
[Chorus]
You know I am a liar (Liar)
You know I am a liar (Liar)
Nobody helps a liar (Liar)

[Verse 2]
'Cause I've been down to Dixie
And dropped acid on my tongue
Tripped upon the land
Till enough was enough
I was a little bit lighter
And adventure on my sleeve
I was a little drunk
And looking for company
So I found myself a sweetheart
With the softest of hands
We were unlucky in love
But I'd do it all again

[Chorus]
We built ourselves a fire (Fire)
We built ourselves a fire (Fire)
You know I am a liar (Liar)
You know I am a liar (Liar)
And you don't know what I've done

[Verse 3]
And by the rolling river
Is exactly where I was
There was no snake oil cure
For unlucky in love
To be lonely is a habit
Like smoking or taking drugs
And I've quit them both
But man, was it rough

[Chorus]
And now I am tired (Tired)
It just made me tired (Tired)
Let's build ourselves a fire (Fire)
Let's build ourselves a fire (Fire)
