  1. [Lyric] My Blue Suit (Matt Sweeney & Bonnie "Prince" Billy)

    [Chorus] You look better in my blue suit Than I do [Verse 1] Happily, I throw my hands up Fully, I surrender here You can have my every footstep And claim them, loan them, free and clear As long as you will hold your head up Make a sturdy step and walk it Roll me in a little ball And shove me fully in your pocket [Chorus] You look better in my...Learn More

    We all have ways to make it seem We are not hard or bad And I chop down trees And spit in faces And laugh when you are sad Your happiness means almost less than all that's in the world and My existence is okay, I guess, because I'm good to my girls I take them to the movies I put food in their bellies I sew the holes in their lives shut And...Learn More
