Crane's Cafe Lyrics

Yeah!
Black beauties crank me up
Exhaust leak clouds my mind
Copenhagen stains my mouth
And it gets me high
Yeah, it gets me high

My veins, tattooed blue
Like worms on the earth
In Crane's, the smoke screen light
Can't do what I'm worth
Can't do what I'm worth

Bail to the metal, and I'm all used up
Bail to the metal, and I've had enough
Bail to the metal, and I've had enough
Bail to the metal, and I'm all used up

My wife don't know where I'm at
My daughter blew out her brains
My shadow scares the cat
Hangin' it clean
clean

Bail to the metal, and I'm all used up
Bail to the metal, and I've had enough
Bail to the metal, and I'm always off
Bail to the metal, and I'm all used up
Yeah!

No one touches my car
No one touches my TV
No one touches my kids
'Cept me

Like a lot of characters in TAD songs (especially early on) this guy is simply a rural psychopath. He literally destroys everything he touches, feels no remorse about it, and is self destructive in a form of pure reflexive nihilism.
