In My Teeth Lyrics

I felt a black man in my teeth; what a way.
Jesus is coming. He acts my age, and he always looks the same.
I said, a good seed was on your break, wasn't a mistake anyway.
Well, Jesus is coming. Better act our age.
And clean everything.
And make it seem

Like we never really needed it anyway.
Yeah, we never really needed it anyway. Okay, okay.

John spoke a theory straight into my brain.
Goddamn did you mean to do that to me?
Well, Jesus don't come round,
Unless we pray each day for five hundred days.

And I don't know what you want anymore.
No, I don't know what you want anymore.
So, we can see

That you never really needed it anyway.
No, you never really needed it anyway.
So we can see

That the bottom's going to bury us anyway.
So, I'm doing what I gotta to stay awake.
Yeah, I'm doing what I gotta to stay awake, okay.

What happens when I don't know what happens?
What happens when I don't know what happens?

So stop and go and stop and go 'till you can't go run anymore.
So stop and go, stop and go 'till you can't go.

Make it seem
Like we never really needed it anyway.
Yeah, we never really needed it anyway.

So we can see
That the bottom's gonna bury us anyway.
Yeah, you're doing what you gotta to stay awake.
Yeah, I'm doing what I gotta to stay awake.
