88 FINGERS LOUIE - Explanation lyrics

rate me

He stumbles in at night and the clock says 3 a.m.<br>

The love of his life just wonders where on earth he's been<br>

<br>

He can't explain himself, a poor excuse is all he's got<br>

A mess of contradictions have his stomach tied in knots<br>

<br>

She gets tired of waiting up all night<br>

If he truly cared for her he'd stay at home tonight<br>

<br>

He says he's out with friends, then again he could be anywhere<br>

She starts to have a nervous breakdown when he isn't there<br>

She tried to call him on the phone and no one's there<br>

<br>

No explanation - No explanation<br>

No explanation can be given<br>

<br>

Wide awake at night again. What is it gonna take?<br>

He tries to speak, it makes her think his story is a fake<br>

She can't take these fables anymore<br>

What she wants to know is what the phone numbers are for<br>

<br>

He can't explain himself, a poor excuse is all he's got<br>

A mess of contradictions have his stomach tied in knots<br>
