Lyrics Black Lips – Gentleman
Text:
This old middle finger has grown fat and tired from flickin’ the bird
My mouth has grown cankerous from spittin’ dirty words
I feel like a strung out snuffaluffaguss
On the south side wearin’ Vietnamese cowboy clothes
I’m tired of bein’ rude, ticked off drunk and crude
My woman can’t bring me home to ma ’cause I am the dude
Got fired for swingin’ this beer, need to wipe off this ugly sneer
My woman can’t bring me home to pa cause I am too weird
And she wants a gentleman
Nothin’ more, just a gentleman
It’s gettin’ hard to lie through my teeth
‘Cause they rotted out and they ‘re not all there
I need my old man to wash my mouth out with soap and my mother to scrub this nasty hair
Why the fuck is a munchkin on the highway jumpin’ a trash can in Congolese cowboy clothes
And like a deer transfixed by headlight the bumper crushed his head while I god damn froze
I’m tired of bein’ rude, ticked off drunk and crude
My woman can’t bring me home to ma ’cause I am the dude
Got fired for swingin’ this beer, need to wipe off this ugly sneer
My woman can’t bring me home to pa cause I am too weird
I’m tired of bein’ rude, ticked off drunk and crude
My woman can’t bring me home to ma ’cause I am the dude
Got fired for swingin’ this beer, need to wipe off this ugly sneer
My woman can’t bring me home to pa cause I am too queer
And she wants a gentleman
Nothin’ more, just gentleman
Nothin’ less, just a gentleman
Nothin’ more just a gentleman
Nothin’ less, just gentleman
Nothin’ more, just a gentleman
Than a gentleman
Than a gentleman
A gentleman, a gentleman, a gentleman
C’mon, c’mon, c’mon, c’mon
