The Woodbox Gang - Bad Veins lyrics



I don't have, matching socks
I don't have, a door that locks

I live in a cardboard box
Sell a pint a blood for fifteen bucks
That's how a bum like me, can get drink

When the monsoon season came I escaped the rain
I hitched a ride on a railroad train

I went to that Illinois bloodbank
Doctor said "Son, You got bad veins"
Now, how's a bum like me, gonna get drink?

It's like a brain surgeon who's gone insane
Or a one-eyed assasin with bad aim

How in the hell is a bum like me
Supposed to get a drink
When the doctor says "Son, you got bad veins"?

You got bad veins [x7 alternately]

[jam]

Now, I know my old veins may not be the best
You can slit my wrist over a bucket, leave me the excess

I don't care if you stick a sump-pump right through my chest!
Give me the money, I'll clean up the mess
And then a bum like me, can get a drink

It's like a porn queen, dying of AIDS
A Romeo telling Juliet he's gay

How in the hell is a bum like me
Supposed to get a drink
When the doctor says "Son, you got bad veins"?

You got bad veins [x7 alternately]

[jam]

Now I'm broke and sober and I feel the pain
Of all the blood returnin' to my brain

How in the hell is a bum like me
Supposed to get a drink
When the doctor says "Son, you got bad veins"?

You got bad veins [x7 alternately]

[jam]

You got bad veins [x7 alternately]
You got bad veins![ outro jam]
