Lambchop
Close Up And Personal
Don't touch my vein with your new needle
Don't be afraid of the pinebeetle
Just rest assured that there will be another day to
It may be here and maybe not
And I'm not sure of all we've got
A season ticket to the war
For the human heart

So let us gather by the light
Some people hurt, some people might
I hold you in my mind tonight to great distraction
And tender is my sleepy bed
Might club me in my sleepy head
And eating dinner with your friends
By their cabin on the lake

And has it really been this long since we were free?
I will now hold my head up high
And I will walk into the light
Erasing every trace in sight
Of every memory

So what's your problem, what's your beef?
I've got this gap between my teeth
And but for this I might have been a different man
And by your watch some time will pass
And by your wine from glass to glass
And I have seen the coming of our precious lord
We all unfold our pages from right to left
Someday I'll get a used guitar
And on its string I'll try to play
This lonesome tune to you

We all have sinned, we all have saved
And much of this our true heart gave
We all have given to our grave our own excesses
So watch me blow into some hat
Part clouterly part sacred cow
And I am ready for my close up
With the lord
