Hello Glitcher!
Claudia Chopek and New Retro Strings featuring Ward White
Lyrics
sometimes you can fix something by failing to arrive
absence makes the heart grow fonder
sometimes you can fix something by just waking away
but then you always have to wonder
sometimes you can fix something with a brutal show of force
riot gear, tear gas and batons
sometimes you can fix something with democracy
but committee thinking gives us sitcoms
sometimes you can fix something by not taking your pill
it’s a safety net: medication
sometimes you can fix something by taking all the pills
nothing quite so dull as desperation
sometimes you can fix something by just being born
another screaming mouth. awh who’ll feed them?
sometimes you can fix something by passing away
the stupid with no blind to lead them
sometimes you can fix something by yanking the tooth
well he’s a dentist, not a doctor
sometimes you can fix something by letting it decay
keep it hid behind a locked door
sometimes you can fix something by burning it to the ground
well, a phoenix rose up from the ashes
sometimes you can fix something by losing what you found
that bird could be a monster if it hatches
