MARILLION - Sugar Mice lyrics

rate me

(fish, steve rothery, mark kelly, pete trewavas, ian mosley)<br><br>I was flicking through the channels on the tv<br>On a sunday in milwaukee in the rain<br>Trying to piece together conversations<br>Trying to find out where to lay the blame<br><br>But when it comes right down to it there's no use trying to pretend<br>For when it gets right down to it there's no one here that's left to blame<br>Blame it on me, you can blame it on me<br>We're just sugar mice in the rain<br><br>I heard sinatra calling me through the floorboards<br>Where you pay a quarter for a partnership in rhyme<br>To the jukebox crying in the corner<br>While the waitress is counting out the time<br><br>For when it comes right down to it there's no use trying to pretend<br>For when it gets right down to it there's no one really left to blame<br>Blame it on me, you can blame it on me<br>We're just sugar mice in the rain<br><br>'cause I know what I feel, know what I want I know what I am<br>Daddy took a raincheck<br>Cos I know what I want, know what I feel I know what I need<br>Daddy took a raincheck, your daddy took a raincheck<br>Ain't no one in here that's left to blame but me<br>Blame it on me, blame it on me<br><br>Well the toughest thing that I ever did was talk to the kids on the phone<br>When I heard them asking questions I knew that that you were all alone<br>Can't you understand that the government left me out of work<br>I just couldn't stand the looks on their faces saying, what a jerk<br><br>So if you want my address it's number one at the end of the bar<br>Where I sit with the broken angels clutching at straws and nursing our scars<br>Blame it on me, blame it on me<br>Sugar mice in the rain<br>Your daddy took a raincheck, your daddy took a raincheck
