A Shot in the Arm Lyrics by Wilco

summerteeth (Deluxe Edition)

1999

[Verse 1]
The ashtray says you were up all night
When you went to bed with your darkest mind
Your pillow wept and covered your eyes
And you finally slept while the sun caught fire
You've changed
[Verse 2]
We fell in love in the key of C
We walked along down by the sea
You followed me down the neck to D
And fell again into the sea
You've changed
Oh, you've changed
[Bridge]
Maybe all I need is a shot in the arm
Maybe all I need is a shot in the arm
Maybe all I need is a shot in the arm
Maybe all I need is a shot in the arm
Maybe all I need is a shot in the arm
Maybe all I need is a shot in the arm
Maybe all I need is a shot in the arm
Something in my veins bloodier than blood
Something in my veins bloodier than blood
Something in my veins bloodier than blood
Something in my veins bloodier than blood
[Verse 3]
The ashtray says you were up all night
When you went to bed with your darkest mind
You've changed
Oh, you've changed
[Outro]
What you once were isn't what you want to be anymore
What you once were isn't what you want to be anymore
What you once were isn't what you want to be anymore
What you once were isn't what you want to be anymore
What you once were isn't what you want to be any more
