Flightless Bird, American Mouth

This isn't my interpretation, it was off another lyric website and I thought it would be usefull as this song (as well as many other I & W songs are) quite hard to read. Hopefully it'll be of some use...

I was a quick wet boy diving too deep for coins: He was a guy that was hard to get and only cared for money,

All of your streetlight eyes, Wide on my plastic toys: Everyone only saw him for what he had though.

Then when the cops closed the fair: Then he realized he wanted love

I ut my long baby hair: he decided to grow up.

Stole me a dog-eared map: He realized what he wanted

And called for you everywhere: and started searching for her

Have I found you: has he found it?

flightless bird: this fragile helpless thing could it be her?

Jealous, weeping: he is jealous and sad.

Or is lost you: Or is he to late?

American mouth: are is she spoken for?

Big pill, looming: the thought is hard to swallow

Now I'm a fat house cat: Now he is happy he can have all he wants

Nursing my sore blunt tongue: can finally get some rest he don't have to call for her anymore.

Watching the warm poison rats curl through the wide fence ****s: he watching the other girls try to tell her lies so the can get in.

****ing on magazines: He knows it's lies

those fishing lures thrown in the cold and clean: so no matter how much the girls try the are fishing without bate

Blood of Christ mountain stream: Because what he has is very pure.

Have I found you: So is she the one?

Flightless bird: this unlikely creature

grounded: he is not going anywhere

bleeding: He would rather get hurt

or lost you: Well he loss her?

american mouth: will she find another and be spoken for

Big pill stuck going down: that would be to hard to swallow
