Songtexte The Hardest Button to Button - Live at The Aragon Ballroom, July 2, 2003 - The White Stripes

We started living in an old house
My mom gave birth and we were checking it out
It was a baby boy, so we bought him a toy
It was a play gun and it was 1981
We named the baby "Too Late"
I heard his cry, earthquake
A small stopped it
Wrecked all into it

I played the banjos, they played maracas
I had a rooster, no, he'll break your back jaw
I had a red Sarge, I love her back yard
You people in the Southside, you're coming to know

Well now it's easy when you don't know better
You think it's sleazy then put it in a short letter
We keep it home but that just don't hit home when you
Just feel that you're the hottest little button to button

I had a big nose, didn't matter
I had a brain, felt like a big cake batter
Got a back yard, nothing in it
Except a stick for a dog and a bunch of something in it

Hot as bloody tuberculosis
Hot as bloody tuberculosis
Hot as bloody tuberculosis
Hot as bloody tuberculosis, yeah
Hot as bloody tuberculosis
Hot as bloody tuberculosis
Hot as bloody tuberculosis, yeah
