Lifter Puller - Emperor lyrics

rate me

and i've got stuff to pick you up, what were you expecting?<br />

and in the rear view mirror i saw the resurrection<br />

and on the elevator down at the multiplex<br />

i just pushed every button, i was just bored i guess<br />

as i stopped and started i felt my very best<br />

you came in without your makeup wearing your new junk store dress<br />

<br />

your face covered in curls and tears<br />

your eyes lit up like fifteen beers<br />

you said your head was finally clear<br />

you told me that you're leaving here<br />

<br />

she puts it all into boxes on a big truck<br />

its just bad luck, its a tough school<br />

and a quualude and a vacuum means a clean house and a clean break<br />

and her knee shakes but no earthquake and her ride home's on the freeway<br />

at the exit by the campus, it's gonna bring her back to connecticut<br />

we're gonna break you out of there, open up the window and let down your hair<br />

lit up like a dance floor, driving down the turnpike, hope the ropes aren't too tight<br />

i am the emperor, that is what the crown is for, that is what the throne is for<br />

that is what the robes are for, that is what the gloves are for<br />

this feels like a holy war, all i'm really asking for<br />

is open up the bathroom door<br />

<br />

up all night, i'm getting drunk and weird<br />

we've got clear beer, i think you're gonna like it<br />

here among the windmills, baby we can just chill<br />

we could all be friends again<br />

don't try to fight it, i've got scars enough<br />

from the night i hit your moving truck<br />

left my things with you, and i put rings on you<br />

put myself in you and now i'm bleeding too

<br />
