lirik lagu the mountain goats - fresh tattoo
[verse 1]
tattoo of the seventh shield
still wet on my skin
you’re all crumpled up on the curb there
i think i’m gonna take you in
[verse 2]
always had to follow my instincts
usually, i’m out on my own
you’re there by the road wet and helpless
what happens if i take you home?
[chorus]
you may forget the whys and wheres
of an old tattoo on your forearm there
but usually, you recall the day you got one
and usually, it fades in the sun
[verse 3]
headed for a season in exile
as the oracle predicted
according to reliable sources
in thirty days i’m getting evicted
[verse 4]
trying not to scratch where it itches
it takes a certain level of discipline
not even half a second by the light switch
let the future flood right in
[chorus]
you may forget the whys and wheres
of an old tattoo on your forearm there
but usually, you recall the day you got one
and usually, it fades in the sun
[bridge]
usually, the lines grow faint
like old house paint
just a way to mark the years gone by
you lay on the couch
three weeks
until the color came back into your cheeks
i’d seen ones like you before
plenty came through before
[verse 5]
legend on the shield in greek
“what’s that say?” you said
i gave you an answer that i thought you’d buy
all of this will disappear in the twinkling of an eye
[chorus]
you may forget the whys and wheres
of an old tattoo on your forearm there
but usually, you recall the day you got one
and usually, it fades in the sun
not this one
