Cover art for The Runt lyrics by Chris Garneau

Lions close their cat eyes too They sleep the same as lovers do I don't know how I got here But I know where I have to go And I'm scared I'll wind up dead

Raccoon babes get left behind Sometimes the runt's too small For moms to care a little bit For moms to care at all

But you, you kept the runt You don't think he's scum He's wasted in the morning He's wasted in the afternoon And he's wasted in the nighttime too

Why can't your heart grow like grass? You don't get love and you don't get mad I don't know how we got here But I know where we have to go And I'm scared we'll wind up dead

Lions close their cat eyes too They sleep the same as lovers do I don't know how I got here But I know where I have to go And I'm scared I'll wind up dead

You, you kept the runt You don't think he's scum He's wasted in the morning He's wasted in the afternoon And he's wasted in the nighttime too

You don't see this everyday You don't see this everyday You don't see this everyday You don't see it everyday You don't see it everyday
