Junkies Promise - Lyrics by Sonic Youth


Lyrics

[thurston]
A hundred dollars used to be more than enough
And now a hundred times a day and still it's not enough
People always tell me you get what you deserve
All i know is all and all is all i've heard

I heard you say: "you know i hate myself
But i love everybody else"
And did you say: "i can't escape myself"
And then you did and now there's no one else

To blame you know that i know yeah that times are rough
I'd like to help you out but things are rather tough
People always tell me that you've got to lend a helping hand
Nothing in return is all i expect from you my friend

I heard you say: "you know i hate myself
But i love everybody else"
And did you say: "i can't escape myself"
And then you did and now there's no one else

I heard you say: "you know i hate myself
But i love everybody else"
And did you say: "i can't escape myself"
And then you do and now there's no one else
