Airplane Glue Blues

Verse 1

Gasoline

Fumes in a brown paper bag

Vision started spinning like a rusted weather vane

Dirt floor rose up to meet my face

Cold mud

Verse 2

Black boots

Kicking at my heavy ribs

Woke up seeing double in a drainage ditch

County medic looking down

White coat

Grim face

He asked me if I had a habit

Asked if I was hooked on that sticky stuff

I looked him in the eye

Stiff neck

Sore lungs

I said no

I am not hooked

I am just stuck

Stuck good

Chorus

Stuck to the bottom

Stuck to the floor

Cannot find the handle

On the cellar door

I am stuck

I am stuck

I am stuck

Verse 3

Hard luck

Handed me a jagged pill

Stumbled through the briers on a lonely hill

Sunlight burning like a brand

Dry mouth

Dull ache

Maybe I should wander south

Maybe I should shut my mouth

Maybe I should just stay down

Flat out

No doubt

My skin is glued to the gravel

Bonded to the grit

I tried to pull away

Skin tore

Heart swore

I am just stuck

Chorus

Stuck to the bottom

Stuck to the floor

Cannot find the handle

On the cellar door

I am stuck

I am stuck

I am stuck

Bridge

Tie my shoes to the pavement

Weld my soul to the shelf

How can I run

When I am trapped within myself

Stuck

Stuck

Stuck

Verse 4

Old bird

Circling a dying pine

Told me that the weather was a friend of mine

Rain won't wash the paste away

Heavy head

Lead feet

The man asked if I wanted help

The man asked if I wanted out

The man asked if I was done

I told him

I told him

I told him

I am not hooked

I am just stuck

Chorus

Stuck to the bottom

Stuck to the floor

Cannot find the handle

On the cellar door

I am stuck

I am stuck

I am stuck

Outro

Adhesive dreams

Tacky reality

Just stuck

Stuck

Stuck
