Lucky With Disease

Elbow

fell like a crippled crow spinning through and breaking branches
i'm in a bad way
call my friends they'll know what to do
i'm a better friend than i've ever been a lover
and that's not saying much
but i'm not saying much today

in this cellular age phone sex is too expensive
not as handsome as my brother
but i've been lucky with disease
and yes i'm a better friend
than i've ever been a lover
and that's not saying much
but i'm not saying much today

    General CommentI loved this song on Season 2 of Nip/Tuck........this song is so mellow, it's great to listen to when you just want to chill out. Kinda existential though.

    General CommentThis song is now on Dead In The Boot, a collection of out-takes etc. The whole album is better than most bands' main efforts!
