The Missionary Position - Diamonds in a Dead Sky (2009)
Why Me? Why Now?
The man’s been breathing down my neck
And Mama you did a number on me
You ran off with myself respect
You left a trail of rubber checks
You go where you like and you do as you please
I’m here living on my knees
Why Me? Why Now?
I’d Like to change but I don’t know how
Every second there’s another sucker born
Left for dead on the side of the road
I haven’t eaten today
I need a couch to call home
I’m looking for a hooker with a heart of gold
Cause the goings getting old
Why Me? Why Now?
I’d Like to Change but I don’t know how
Another nail in the coffin
This is my personal apocalypse
I learned the rhythm of a city
I swing like a prostitute’s hips
