lyrics

I don't wanna wake up hot in your coffee.
You got a lot to say, and half or more is jargon or tough talk.
I don't wanna find my name in your office.
Jump down the fire escape, and contemplate my new name and car.
'Cus I don't hear the jangling bells
or smell the easy money.

Switch back to the part where I asked,
"Why was I tasked like a little errand boy?" Please let's
switch back to the part where you rolled all the dice.
I'm sure that it gave you something to talk about.
But I saw every weakness, knew every answer to
every relevant question.

I don't wanna wake up hot in your coffee.
You got a lot to say, about what I have never been quite sure.
If you switch back to the part where you rolled all the dice,
I'm sure you could dictate quite an anthology.
But I don't hear the jangling bells
or smell the easy money.

I might hear the jangling bells
somewhere dull in the distance --
coming home through the ozone,
a pure tone so persistent.
