Bathtub Blues Lyrics

Wake up in an unknown place

Staring into an unknown face

Grab my clothes and I try to escape but I don't know how

No I don't know how

To get home

Daddy says you won't find the answers

At the bottom of the bottle

Looked him in the eyes, I said yes sir

But I don't know how

No I don't know how

To have control

Mama says you can't reach your dreams in the little cloud that leaks from your pipe but

Every time I light up it seems that I don't know how

No I don't know how

To be alone

Sister sister can't you hear her call

I thought that every night you could listen right through her walls

The little flower girl drips red in her bathtub blues

She'll be fine tomorrow afternoon

Getting stoned underneath the daytime moon

Trying to find a "me" that's true

But flowers die and lovers lie

And mother how she cries just to look into her baby's sad eyes

Growing pains

That's all it is

Her name's been tainted

"Miss Misery" it is
