lyrics

last night i got in a fight with a pint glass neither of us won he's in pieces and i already was

i have this neighbor,
a rat that lives inside my skull
once in a while
he'll peer from out my sockets
if he sees that we're alone
he'll climb from nerve to nerve
like a cable car
perch himself on the crown of my mind
and plug in
he's up there now
tangled in wires
he's teaching me how to sing
how to let someone else in
i always knew i could take it on the chin
