lyrics

Genevieve don't talk to me
She's just laying in her hammock
Counting her prayers and trying to get complete
Jezebel, I wish you well
All them books about hell have convinced me you are real

And as I run the sun
Into the 21st Century
Do people like you still exist to me?

When I'm drunk and by the sea,
When I'm drunk and by the sea

Genevieve, oh please just leaave
For all them patterns and those truths
They are hardly enough for me to hold onto
Jezebel in that old hotel
You know we wish you well
But pretty soon it will be time to go

You will be just like one of them dudes
With the tracheall tubes
They would show real high up on the TV screen
When I was in middle school
And all the kids who smoked were hopelessly cool
But we were cool, too
Yeah we were cool too
