Joe’s Head

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Blistered, cracked and bleedin' Cold, no one should know Rain falls down a-freezin' And stickin' like a snow [Verse 2] Lingerin' suspicions Screamin' in my head Lies all mixed up with omissions Oh, welcome home again [Pre-Chorus] It's too late for apologies, they're fallin' at my feet [Chorus] "This is just the way of the world," Joe said "Had to put a bullet into his head" And then lit up a cigarette Decided to call his fat friend Fred Well, he said, "Fred, I just killed a man I caught him layin' with my girlfriend And now they're both dead People can be so cold when they're dead" [Verse 3] Callin' all the neighbors Time to make amends Whiskey floods the table Oh, good friends 'til the end [Pre-Chorus] And they're making silly faces and it's tastin' bittersweet [Chorus] "This is just the way of the world," Joe said "Had to put a bullet into his head" And then lit up a cigarette Decided to call his fat friend Fred Well, he said, "Fred, I just killed a man I caught him layin' with my girlfriend And now they're both dead People can be so cold when they're dead" [Instrumental Break] [Pre-Chorus] It's too late for apologies, they're fallin' at my feet [Chorus] "This is just the way of the world," Joe said "Had to put a bullet into his head" And then lit up a cigarette Decided to call his fat friend Fred Well, he said, "Fred, I just killed a man I caught him layin' with my girlfriend And now they're both dead People can be so cold when they're dead" "A-this is just the way of the world," Joe said "I had to put a bullet into his head" And then lit up a cigarette Decided to call his fat friend Fred Well, he said, "Fred, I just killed a man I caught him layin' with my girlfriend And now they're both dead People can be so cold when they're dead"
