Jerks of Attention (triple j Live at the Wireless, 1997)

Lyrics

[Intro] And this next song is called Jerks of Attention It's already been released as a single It was our first single Goes a little bit like this [Verse 1] There is no pain, my body's drained I never should have had that fourth slice straight We gathered round the lost and found But my jerks of attention let me down [Pre-Chorus] I took the first one And I pulled it back And what was once green Had all turned black, it all turned black And there was nothing left to say [Chorus] I'm ten foot tall, the world's so small I know it all when I'm wasted And what you see inside of me Has been set free when I'm wasted Wasted [Verse 2] I'm gettin' there, my constant stare And I don't think I'll move from this chair We've got them both, Archers of Loaf And the Stone Roses in the stereo-wow-ow-ow [Pre-Chorus] I took the first one And I pulled it back And what was once green Had all turned black, it all turned black And there was nothin' left to say [Chorus] I'm ten foot tall, the world's so small I know it all when I'm wasted And what you see inside of me Has been set free when I'm wasted I'm ten foot tall, the world's so small I know it all when I'm wasted And what you see inside of me Has been set free when I'm wasted [Bridge] Wasted, wasted Wasted, wasted Oh [Chorus] I'm ten foot tall, the world's so small I know it all when I'm wasted And what you see inside of me Has been set free when I'm wasted [Outro] I don't want to be straight Don't want to be straight And I don't want to be Wasted, wasted, wasted, wa-wasted, down [Spoken] That was Jerks of Attention We were Jebediah And that was a nice sip of water
