I went to a cobbler
To fix a hole in my shoe
He took one look at my face

And said, "I can fix that hole in you"

I beg your pardon

I'm not looking for a cure
Seen enough of my friends
In the depths of the godsick blues


You know I am a liar
You know I am a liar

Nobody helps a liar

Because I've been down to Dixie

And dropped acid on my tongue
Tripped upon the land
Until enough was enough


I was a little bit lighter
And adventure on my sleeve

I was a little drunk
And looking for company


So I found myself a sweetheart
With the softest of hands
We were unlucky in love

But I'd do it all again

We build ourselves a fire

We build ourselves a fire
But you know I am a liar
You know I am a liar


And you don't know what I've done


By the rolling river is
Exactly where I was
There was no simple cure

For unlucky in love

To be lonely is a habit

Like smoking or taking drugs
And I've quit them both
But man, was it rough


Now I am tired
It just made me tired

Let's build ourselves a fire
Let's build ourselves a fire
