Charles Lyrics by Pony Up!

Stay Gold

2009

[Verse 1]
Oh, when I shake out the water
Oh, out of my ear I will suffer
Oh, the consequences
Honey, you put me
Forever in the backseat

[Verse 2]
Oh, I hear you look like Charles Manson
Oh, with that beard like Van Winkle
Oh, and you burned all your ink off
So these jagged stones won't feel so rough
These jagged stones won't feel so rough

[Chorus]
Playdough's full of nails and honey
Kill the evil that's inside me
Oh my
So just smile and swallow quickly
It'll all go down so smoothly
Oh my

[Verse 3]
"Thank you", I say to my mother
To whom I am like no other
Christ, he would be pleased
Seems I don't fall far from the tree

[Chorus]
Playdough's full of nails and honey
Kill The evil that's inside me
Oh my
So just smile and swallow quickly
It'll all go down so smoothly
Oh my

[Outro]
What to do with my sense of time
What was yesterday
Today I will never mind
Such harsh words may grow guilt
Out of aspirations
That could never have existed
If I didn't for a minute
Want to get out of this city
And sit still in mother's kitchen seat
She'll pull the plug and
Watch me break my water
