"ODE TO CHILL ROOM"

I'm rinsing in the rain again 

Lucy dances in the kitchen with my ex-ex-girlfriend 

Oh I loved her 

She's butter 

Oh, brother 

I feel her and she knows it 

 

I'm wide-eyed at the walls, they spin 

I'm shakin' like a saint hidin' all his best sins 

I'm a hunter 

Fer somethin' 

So cosmic 

And no one here could know it 

Oh no, they don't know it 

 

That I took a trip from the city tonight! 

 

Hey, tell me what's your favorite song 

If it's "Crimson & Clover," I'll put it on 

It makes my knees weak 

I can't think 

Just sing sweet 

In the corner with God 

 

Sometimes I feel so out of place 

I try to run with the crowd, but get so bored with the pace 

I need a new scene 

This one seems 

Too washed clean 

My dirt dreams 

Too free 

But no one here could know it 

Oh no, they don't know it 

 

That I took a trip from the city tonight 

In the Chill Room I feel all right 

Take a trip from the city tonight 

In the Chill Room you'll feel all right 

 

Oh no, they don't know it 

Oh no, they don't know it 

 

That I took a trip from the city tonight 

In the Chill Room I feel all right 

Take a trip from the city tonight 

In the Chill Room you'll feel all right
