Intuition said it was fair
All of you should know there's
Not enough to go around
Here they come again I can watch
As they try they try to take it out
Here they come again I can
Watch closer now
I can watch closer now
They can't find enough
To take enough from me
They can't find enough
To take enough from me
I've seen the hordes, the hordes
I've seen the hordes, the hordes
Looking down that drain of yours
Cartoon of blue jay
Cartoon of black bay too
Cartoon of blue jay
Cartoon of black bay too
Intuition knocked again fair
All of you should know by now there's
Not enough to go around
But I never go that way
Other half of me says I should
Other half of me says I should
Other half of me says I should
All of you should know there's
Not enough to go around
As they try they try to take it out
Here they come again I can
Watch closer now
I can watch closer now
To take enough from me
They can't find enough
To take enough from me
I've seen the hordes, the hordes
Looking down that drain of yours
Cartoon of black bay too
Cartoon of black bay too
All of you should know by now there's
Not enough to go around
But I never go that way
Other half of me says I should
Other half of me says I should
Other half of me says I should

i have no idea about the meaning but fuck i wish i was in the right place and time to see her performing around the time she released this.
I don't know anybody who can break this song down completely. The original version on Myra Lee is an acquired taste.
I believe this song is about how Chan can't stop drinking or knowing when she's had "enough" to drink. She even says in a line "The other half of me said I should Throw it down the drain" like she knows she should just pour the rest of the alcohol out. I've seen interviews of Cat Power and she has openly said she had a drinking problem.
