Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
I left bubblegum in my mouth overnight
Mother said I'd choke
But I'd just given up the fight
I lay out like an arrow with a head heavy as lead
And a heart-starving mad
And a body overfed
[Chorus]
I woke up in the coolness
Of a country-born dawn
To discover my inner cheeks
Were all bloody and torn
[Verse 2]
Morning came
Hubba was still there tucked away beneath my gums
Transformed into bitty, rancid strawberry crumbs
I lay out like an arrow with a head heavy as lead
And a heart-starving mad
And a body overfed
[Chorus]
I woke up in the coolness
Of a country-born dawn
To discover my lips and cheeks
Were all bloody and torn
[Verse 1]
I left bubblegum in my mouth overnight
Mother said I'd choke
But I'd just given up the fight
I lay out like an arrow with a head heavy as lead
And a heart-starving mad
And a body overfed
[Chorus]
I woke up in the coolness
Of a country-born dawn
And to discover my lips and cheeks
Were all bloody and torn
[Verse 2]
Morning came
Hubba was still there tucked away beneath my gums
Transformed into bitty, rancid strawberry crumbs
I lay out like an arrow with a head heavy as lead
And a heart-starving mad
And a body overfed
[Chorus]
I woke up in the coolness
Of a country-born dawn
I discovered my lips and cheeks
Were all bloody and torn
[Outro]
And I discovered my lips and cheeks
Were all bloody and torn
