From The Album Songs of God and Whiskey (2015) Published by The Airborne Toxic Event Lyrics by Mikel Jollett Cocaine and Abel The second time You ask me to do the line You offer it so graciously So I think, what harm could it be for me? Are you sure that this won’t last? My god, this stuff, it sure works fast It’s like you’re opening a vein And bleeding out my brain, brain, brain I love you too But I really love your shoes You look stunning decked in red Wait, what was it that I said? Are you happy to be alive? Are you frightened someday you’ll die? Are you sharp, are you dull Are you that tiny sober dot at the center of my fevered skull? When the conversation ends What happens when the conversations ends? Oh, tell me when the conversation ends Oh please, don’t let this conversation end Do you like to read, do you like to ski? Do you like Kurt Vonnegut, do you like me? Do you always quote Dostoevsky? Or only when you snort a ki, ki, ki? I feel so sick Please don’t tell me this is it You gave me such a fright Let’s dance like ghosts, Let’s haunt ourselves tonight
