Glen Phillips & Toad Lyrics |
Train wreck (Abulum) |
She looked just like a train wreck That could've been avoided In a third world country By a long stretch of farmland Where the waters had run high And washed the topsoil down the river So that next year there would be no crops... She was as desperate as a salesman At a company that's folding But they haven't told the staff yet That they're bankrupt and backordered And they're funneling the pensions To the CEO's back pocket So in one week they'll have nothing I miss you girl, I hope you're fine Good luck, love Or goodbye She's the girl from central casting Always played the sweet young orphan Or the hooker with the heart of gold But she got her SAG card pulled And turns tricks now on Cahuenga She tells herself it's research For her next and greatest role She'll call you up just to hear you say she's fine Then she's gone away And you know there's only one more time You'll hear about her again Well it's life informing art informing life again Like every stupid kid That thinks that they're the first in pain The first to rip themselves apart The first to try and live without a heart I want to see your face, even hear your lies Good luck, girl Or goodbye Goodbye |
