Gumshoes – Pushovers Lyrics

I gave them the address
I was a worker not a thinker, why consider what'll head his way, the part I play
I gave them the address
On the driveway was a tricycle with pink and purple ribbons tied in shoelace knots
I gave them the address
Now I'll forever know a stranger, cause a stranger's how he'll go no no
I gave them the address
I guess you give until you die

Well I don't wanna be another body standing in the water
I don't wanna pray upon the flipping of a rusty quarter
I don't wanna be around these people when I meet my daughter
I don't wanna do this anymore

I'm a decent man
One day I'll afford to prove it, I will choose it, I will make up for this time I'm losing
I'm a decent man
If I'm machinery, I'll be the open blade that's taking fingers off the operator
I'm a decent man
I numb my knuckles on the mirror, I get shivers down my spinelessness, 5 to 9
I'm a decent man
I just make things worse sometimes

Well I don't wanna be another body standing in the water
I don't wanna pray upon the flipping of a rusty quarter
I don't wanna be around these people when I meet my daughter
I don't wanna do this anymore

I'm free in the morning
Speeding on a sleeping highway
Free in the morning
Leave a briefcase on their driveway
Free in the morning
When you get the boss' orders
Free in the morning
I've already crossed the border
Free in the morning
I'm gonna go where living's slower
Free in the morning
A fishing boat in sinaloa
Free in the morning
Sunset on a creaking harbor
Free in the morning
I'm gonna be a real good father
