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
