"Needle In The Hay" Lyrics

Your hand on his arm is that charm around your neck
Strung out and thin, calling some friend
Trying to cash some check
He's acting dumb, that's what you've come to expect

Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay

She's wearing your clothes
Head down to toes, a reaction to you
You said you know what I did, but you idiot kid,
You don't have a clue.
Sometimes they just caught in the eye
You're pulling them through

Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay

Now on the bus nearly touching, this dirty retreat
Falling out, sits them out
I got sweat in my teeth
I'm gonna walk walk walk four more blocks
Cause the one in my brain
down downstairs, to the man
He's gonna make it all ok
I can't be myself I can beat myself
And I don't wanna talk.
And I'm taking the cure,
So I can be quiet whenever I want.
So leave me alone, you oughta be proud,
I'm getting good marks.

Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay
Needle in the hay
