Derek Spears Songtext
von Grandaddy

You slept right by the yoghourt hut on a painted curb
Wearing nothing but some cut-offs and a muscle shirt
And at 5 a.m., the donut girls came quietly to work
When they slid the trays and banged the bowls, you woke up with a jerk


32 ounce soda to start the day off right
Every now and then remembering little things about last night
Hold on, take five, check out the fox in the corvette
Then you said, you know it don′t get no better than that

He spent all the money on an ornate waterbed
It had a carving of a tiger right above his head
And he's embarrassed of the fact that he works at Pizza Shack
He says he made 90K a year before he hurt his back

And the money his sister owes him, his cousin has, but he′s in jail
There's all these cheques that should be arriving any day now in the mail
But mysteriously, the cheques won't show, and the sticky boombox by the door
Will end up getting sold once more for a lot less than before
