Soft Serve Songtext
von Soul Coughing

With a body like soft serve, dripping down in the June sun
I tried to shoot a thought, but the thought sunk
Nothing to do but scratch words in the dirt
And watch the water roll down

Phantom kisses buzzing like the insects
Beads of sweat dripping down on the rent check
My candyland melted down to syrup
While I watched the water roll down

But hey the lust comes into phase
But you′re down in Marietta

So sweet my mouth was seared
But the words you mouthed were sweeter

My sister
Your words can be held against you in a court of law
My sister
You owe no allegiance to the facts, yeah


Talkin' like the saint on the site of the accident
Talkin′ like the clause in the lease about the late rent
Ringin' like the random call patched to the payphone
Talkin' like the water rolls down
Watched the water roll down

And here comes the lust into phase
But you′re down in Marietta
So sweet my mouth was seared
But the words you mouthed were sweeter

Talking like the saint on the site of the accident
Talking like the botched shot, attempt on the president
Ringin′ like the change in the legless man's dixie cup
Talkin′ like the water rolls down
Watched the water roll down now

Day undone, day undone, day undone, day undone
Day undone, day undone, day undone, day undone
Day undone, day undone, day undone, day undone
Watched the water roll down

Day undone, day undone, day undone, day undone
Day undone, day undone, day undone, day undone
Day undone, day undone, day undone, day undone


Watched the water roll down
Watched the water roll down
Watched the water roll down
Watched the water roll down
Watched the water roll down
