Scab Songtext
von Ash Tuesday

Ah, ah
Ah, ah

Haptic latch key kid
Drunk on overstimulation
Absent ask him
How his ever-present day went
Dad′s been having
Fun with some lady he isn't
Matching names with
Strangle him no hesitation

(ah, ah)

Rent′s still relentless
While bills pile up like dirty dishes
Classic, mom is
Crying in her Honda Civic
Sis sent pics since
Matt had said he really meant it
Jess suggests forget it
No such thing as bad attention


(ah, ah)

And then he hears from the doorway
Open beer and a voice say
"If I'm still your favorite
Man you gotta be here when the day ends."

While the AC's cutting off middle of August
So the AC′s cutting off
Just ignore it
Just ignore it

(ah, ah)

Sordid assortment
Things of which to fill his head with
He picks hallucinogens
To reminisce about kindergarten
She′ll repress VBS
Well when's the last time you accepted
the gentleman′s no Jesus?
Just loves to see you with your knees bent


God the a.m.'s fluorescent
She′s got math with him in heaven
and she's been trying, calculating
to make sure he remains when the day ends

While the smoke alarm needs charge
So it keeps chirping
So the smoke alarm needs charge, just ignore it
Just ignore it

So here′s the plan:
Stare at the ceiling fan
and will things to be different
Pick at the scab
the one that you still have
Cause you keep messing with it
Either or
Either or
Either or
Either or
All while the AC's cutting off middle of August
All while the smoke alarm needs charge

And if the TV's screening Jaws
And you′ve seen it, but you′ll watch
And if mom left you in charge when you saw them in dad's car
Then just ignore it
Just ignore it
Just ignore it
Yeah you should just ignore it

Ah, ah
Ah, ah
