Текст песни Hank - Pearl Diver

Hank thought maybe he'd hang out for a while in Jackson
Just try to stumble through The Fall
Attempt to warm up a little in wintertime
He carried the hard shard of splinter ripped from his mother's wooden heart
And kept it in a rusty locket containing the photograph of some other woman
That he'd stolen from his disturbed Daddys pocket
Oh well he thought, you know Jack, he never did have any god-damned common-sense

For a brief moment he thought he heard the ringing of his mobile phone
You know, that machine that became todays drug of choice in exchange for yesterdays cigarette
Don't be so damn stupid, nobody even knows the god-damned number
Nobody even knows your god-damned number
Hank didn't even know his god-damned self
The only person he could talk to was the speaking clock
Tick, Tock, Tick Fucking Tock

The cracked bathroom mirror reflected the cadaver of the husband
That his mother had hammered with six-inch rusty nails to Hank's airways
Couldn't even see himself, couldn't even breath
Through the ether, Hank heard his mother calling
Tick, Tock, Tick Fucking Tock
You know that Hank... never did have any common-sense
