It's Just A Scratch Lyrics

This is an icepick sticking out of my head

It was born there

No, somebody put it there

It's my brain ya see

It fucked up the part that controls what I think

But i'm still alive for now

Not too articulate yet

I have to believe that yet part

I see many things all OK

People I kinda remember

Like you

Weren't you at what's her names party

June 23rd, 1980

The great hot as hell summer night

We fell in love with each others

See just like that I drop off

You look good

Did you always

Like as a kid I mean

Show me a picture

A photograph

What kind of wallet do you have

A black one, smooth, lots of bills, mastercard

I used to have one of those

Now I'm a comedian

Big word

I make more than a regular common

I get on stage somehow

Oh the chair

I-I roll up there

They treat me nice

I don't drink, but they buy me a beer

I say coors cause I sounds like curse

OK i'm tired

I have to tell you to go

Is that my arm

Is this a wave

That was too much to do all at once

I'm worse now

But I have things on my mind like the future

Let's say the word future

C'mon say too when I do

Future

You could do me a favour and say it

It won't hurt you

But it might help me

Future

Please say it

Future

Say the word future

Someday when you're gone

You will say

I met a young man with an icepick in his head

I said a word when he did

It was interesting

And someone will say

I did too

You will be nice to that person in a while

This is my big exit

I say

Well see you later

Like I used to

But now it's depressing

Then i'm sorry I did

Then I try to smile

But it doesn't look like one

So I wave again

Or whatever that is

Then you wave your hand in the air alright

Then I go away

I can't tell if you did

But i'm sure you did

This is an icepick sticking out of my head
