about

WELLDIGGER


Your steps make a sound, down the corridor
Door crashes closed, and there’s no words at all

Refrain: You’re out on the sidewalk baby cold as a Welldigger’s ass
You’re pissed at the moon, waiting for a streetcar

Left over restaurant food sticks to my mouth
Chopsticks unopened, the paper still wrapped
If it wasn’t Chinese or maybe Thai
We wouldn’t be here at all, at least I know why

Refrain: You’re out on the sidewalk baby under a sparkling sky
You’re pissed at the moon, waiting for a streetcar

(break)

Your steps make a sound down the corridor
Door crashes closed and there’s no sound at all

Refrain: You’re out on the sidewalk baby cold as a Welldigger’s ass
You’re pissed at the moon, waiting for this moment to pass

You’re out on the sidewalk baby under a purple sky
You’re pissed at the moon, waiting on a streetcar

lyrics

WELLDIGGER


Your steps make a sound
Down the corridor
The door crashes closed
And there’s no words at all

Chorus:
You’re out on the sidewalk baby
Cold as a welldigger’s ass
You’re pissed at the moon
Waiting for this moment to pass

Left over restaurant food
Sticks to my mouth
The chopsticks unopened
The paper still wrapped
If it wasn’t Chinese or maybe Thai
We wouldn’t be here at all
At least I know why

Chorus:
You’re out on the sidewalk baby under a sparkling sky
You’re pissed at the moon, waiting for a streetcar

( trumpet etc, horns)

Your steps make a sound
Down the corridor
Door crashes closed
And there’s no words at all

Chorus:
Now you’re out on the sidewalk baby
Cold as a welldigger's ass
You’re pissed at the moon
Waiting for this moment to pass
Ya you're waiting
You're waiting
