Black Nurse Lyrics by Glassjaw

Coloring Book

2011

[Verse 1]
Beyond poor, beyond ostracized
Destined to be obscured
Beyond right in your offset eyes
On dominus ground
If what I say isn't true
I do it to reason with you
Kiss and no tell
The police down at the motel, oh!

[Chorus 1]
I'm aware; I see
Yes, I do
Yet, somewhere, as you reach down
I'm afraid you'll want me to go without
I'm aware; I see
Yes, I do...
And somewhere, as you reach down
I'm afraid you'll want me to go without
To return what I've given out

[Verse 2]
Beyond poor, beyond ostracized
Destined to be obscured
Beyond right in your husband's eyes
He bows when you're 'round
If what I say isn't true
I do it to reason with you
Kiss and no tell
The last man in was the first to take the vow

[Chorus 2]
I'm aware; I see
Yes, I do
Yet, somewhere, as you reach down
I'm afraid you'll want me to go without
I'm aware; I see
Yes, I do
Yet, somewhere, as you reach down
I'm afraid you'll want me to go without
Return what I've given out

[Verse 3]
Beyond poor, beyond ostracized
Destined to be obscured
Beyond right in your husband's eyes
I'll exploit your frown

[Chorus 3]
I'm aware; I see
Yes, I do
Yet, somewhere, as you reach down
I'm afraid you'll want me to go without
I'm aware; I see
Yes, I do
Yet, somewhere, as you reach down
I'm afraid you'll want me to go without
I'm aware; I see!
Oh, there's just somewhere, as you reach down
I'm afraid you'll want me to go without
I'm aware; I see
Yes, I do
And somewhere, as you reach down
I'm afraid you'll want me to go without
Return what I've given out
