Band: Woodbox Gang Album: Drunk As Dragons VERSE 1
Am                       D                        Am
Troubles, I know troubles, troubles are what I know best

Am                                          D                    Am
Not the kind that make you a rebel, just the kind that make you depressed

Am                                                D                      Am
Confidential conversation spoken without hesitation half a decibel above silently

Am                                             D                   Am
Violently or quietly I invite them in sighingly, everyone confides in me
CHORUS
      G         G            D   
Like a dirty sponge soaking up the misery of the world

       G                               G
I guess someone's got to wipe their filthy mouth

     G       G             Am
An ugly sponge, heavy, full of dirt and ugly words

Am             E         Am
And it's about to wring me out
VERSE 2 I used to have bigger ears and more years to see the tears And to hear the fears of my fellow man Now it is the opposite, I think those folks are full of shit And I find it hard to give a good goddamn VERSE 3 Wring me out and get me clean in a metaphorical washing machine Kerosene, bleach, and alcohol I'm constipated with this hatred and if I was God I would have made it Impossible to speak or hear at all
