Jerks of Attention (Single Version) Lyrics by Jebediah

Twenty

1996

[Verse 1]
There is no pain, my body's drained
I never should have had that fourth slice straight
We gathered round the lost and found
But my jerks of attention let me down
[Pre-Chorus]
I took the first one
And I pulled it back
And what was once green
Had all turned black, it all turned black
And there was nothing left to say
[Chorus]
I'm ten foot tall, the world's so small
I know it all when I'm wasted
And what you see inside of me
Has been set free when I'm wasted
Wasted
[Verse 2]
I'm getting there, my constant stare
And I don't think I'll move from this chair
We've got them both, Archers of Loaf
And the Stone Roses in the stereo
[Pre-Chorus]
I took the first one
And I pulled it back
And what was once green
Had all turned black, it all turned black
And there was nothing left to say
[Chorus]
I'm ten foot tall, the world's so small
I know it all when I'm wasted
And what you see inside of me
Has been set free when I'm wasted
[Chorus]
I'm ten foot tall, the world's so small
I know it all when I'm wasted
And what you see inside of me
Has been set free when I'm wasted
[Bridge]
Wasted, wasted
Wasted, wasted
[Chorus]
I'm ten foot tall, the world's so small
I know it all when I'm wasted
And what you see inside of me
Has been set free when I'm wasted
[Outro]
I don't want to be straight
Don't want to be straight
And I don't want to be
Wasted, wasted, wasted, wa-wasted, dumb
