orthodontist Songtext
von ducksmithson

Gotta get back to the orthodontist
Last time I went she really put me in line
Grinding my teeth in the welcome office
She winks and says
Her retainer has
Two holes like mine

Gotta get back to the upstairs bathtub
Where nobody is turning on the overhead fan
Quiet in the morning I could let my thought go
Turn the water brown
Watch them swirl around
And down the drain

I write what I can
I write what I know
The heat of the day
The porcelain cold


I′m running away
Till I start to miss home
One call from my mom
And I fold

I gotta get used to this sinking feeling
Like I'm failing everybody and I′m doing it wrong
Now every other day has a double meaning
Where I wake up okay
Before remembering
Part of me's gone

What's the weather
Where you are?
It′s 90 minutes
Not that far
By afternoon it
Might start raining-
How soon can you
Come and get me?

I gotta get back for the orthodontist
Last time I went she really put me in line
