“City Water”
By Sweetheart
Hook
She’s terribly poor, terribly poor
Give her a dollar just offer she won’t take it why bother
Give her more give her more
When you would settle for city water
Verse 1: Sweetheart
There’s a cartoon face in the place where I grin
An empty roll of paper to change by the bathroom bin
Salt in the wound when I think about the past
A sour apple mood and it’s gonna last
You were the blister I wore from my pen
The hands around my neck when
So much coughing left me raspy
You’d blow up and blew right past me
The pipes are frozen, your swing is off
My hair won’t set, adventure is lost
Your down on your luck, you think your a giant
I raised you right, you grew up defiant
You let me down, I never feared monsters
Are we still friends? My tiny dancer
Remember the song I used to play?
How come you always get your way—
Hook
She’s terribly poor, terribly poor
Give her a dollar just offer she won’t take it why bother
Give her more give her more
When you would settle for city water
Verse 2: Sweetheart
The thirst is still here, when you say when
I’ll stop
You could be in prison, I’d still offer you a drop
It’s what I got
You roped me into this story you made
Every time I lie, I know Daddy got paid
Pay me no mind, when you cry for your love
And my back starts to weaken, I’m smiling down from above
It’s a shame, my name sullied, but I roll with the punches
So come home after this school, there’ll still be lunches
Go with the flow, and let yourself try
The river don’t run and neither did I
When the oceans and the lakes go dry
We’ll be so well, The well will catch every tear you cry
I’m the caramel apple with braces you can’t eat
Because these ties that bind let us choke on our feet
Try to relax and leave time for me
Mom is so perfect, she would never believe
Hook
She’s terribly poor, terribly poor
Give her a dollar just offer she won’t take it why bother
Give her more give her more
When you would settle for city water
Hook
She’s terribly poor, terribly poor
Give her a dollar just offer she won’t take it why bother
Give her more give her more
When you would settle for city water
