Michael Penn - Drained Lyrics

Michael Penn - Drained
Artist : Michael Penn
Title : Drained
[00:15]"Here's the car you will be driving. Radio works.

[00:22]Take the 10 out. On arriving, detour other road.

[00:29]Where every sign's a carved design.

[00:33]stick feather on with glue

[00:37]and run amok upon the lawn"

[00:40]The sun comes up and it just dawned on me:

[00:48]one thing's clear

[00:51]the times come when all of your love is drained

[00:57]

[01:03]I've seen this scene

[01:04]I'll dream this dream and have now and then

[01:10]I lose my concentration to some twister again

[01:17]and I point mute in shrunken suit like all your

[01:22]weathermen

[01:25]now feeling wet and most alone

[01:28]into this shelter I am thrown and found dumb?

[01:35]at least I got this one thing clear:

[01:39]the times come when all of your love is drained

[01:47]

[01:54] Crash on the east Grapevine

[01:57] and now that the blacktop's dried up

[02:01] you'll be tied up and I'll be fine...

[02:09]

[02:17]Now that I've got your attention,

[02:20]a toast to the host.

[02:24]If that's a rope and wood invention

[02:27]then tie me to its post.

[02:31]There's a subject to consider

[02:35]since we both know each other too well.

[02:38]Forget the plumber, call a priest

[02:42]the convicts have all been released

[02:46]and I just screwed this up

[02:49]at least I think I have

[02:54]but you left me with this one thing clear:

[02:58]the times come when all of our love is drained.

[03:09]One thing's clear

[03:13]the time comes when all of your love is drained.
