Steve Poltz - Silver LiningLyrics

Muffin's in the toaster I got my raspberry jam My grandpa was a sailor And he came into this land And he was looking for gold A pretty hand to hold Or some cards to fold At least that's, what I've been told Silver lining Silver lining where'd you go? I turn on my T.V. They got talking heads in space It used to be so easy To have a little faith I used to rely on luck To earn a honest buck I didn't feel so stuck I didn't limp around like John Kruk Silver lining Silver lining where'd you go? We used to have hope Now we got soap on a rope We used to have dreams Now we got overpaid baseball teams We got grocery baggers Graffiti taggers Golf ball shaggers Go team go Silver lining Silver lining where'd you go? My landlord knocks upon my door And she's got that payday face I swear to God she should be paying me To live inside this place It's filled with sharks and fins With double chins Who say, "Thicken your skin, child If you wanna win"; Silver lining Silver lining where'd you go? I fix myself some herbal tea 'Cause it's healthier they say But healthier ain't half as fun I'll take a cold beer anyday I used to have dysfunctional fun In the cancerous sun With my co-dependent hon Eating greasy, greasy hot dogs on a buttered up bun Silver lining Silver lining where'd you go? Silver lining Silver lining where'd you go?
