Desert Of Glue Lyrics

So I let things pile up
I prefer the trash to the bath
Such an unbearable need

In the backseat
He spent ten days
In the back of my car
There's been too much so far
Then I stick my hand out the window
There's a trusting fool
I see my skin melt
I smell the stink

I'd kill anyone for water
Just to climb a hill
But it spills on the way back
The desert's like stepping on tacks

Well I'm just a camel, man
I carry this weight 'cause I can

I'm sometimes down
It burns me through my teeth
There are some things worth checkin' in the cave

It's been ten days
And too many times I've been reckless
And too many times I've been careless
But not enough

I'm coming on like a wretched hog
I'm coming on like a naked bitch

I'm coming on like a wretched mess
Cause boast company has more has less
I'm coming on cause I asked you well

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

These are actually the lyrics for both Desert of Glue and Wretched Hog, because they are two names of the same song. The lyrics this site lists are Wretched Hog are actually Half Animal, Half insane. The track listing on the CD is unclear, it lists four tracks although there's actually five on the disk; and since the second track has two names ("Desert of Glue/Wretched Hog") people assume that they are separate songs that are tracks 2 and 3 on the disk, respectively. Actually they are the same (second) song, and the fifth track is an untitled 21 minute song not listed on the back of the CD.

The correct tracklist is:

1 Burn Your House Down 4:23
2 Desert Of Glue / Wretched Hog 13:56
3 Half Animal, Half Insane 11:21
4 Let The Smoke Rise 4:15
5 Untitled 21:07
