Wash U Clean Songtext

Wash U Clean Songtext
U run it rich, that carburetor.
U gotta open, open that choke.
′Cause when you're here, the air it won′t clear.
And u just blowin', just blowin' smoke.
U got a blue feather bird on a golden swing.
It wears a ruby tipped crown but it don′t sing.
U keep bringin′ me gifts like it ain't no thing
But I thought u said goodbye.
I thought u let; let that bird fly. (there it goes)
Baby, I can′t wash you clean.
U got a match, well I got the gasoline.
Baby, redemption ain't free.
U gonna need more than u can get from me.
This river′s dry. Baby, can't wash u clean.
U gotta a new monkey bangin′ some tambourine.
It's got some big button eyes; it's made of velveteen.
U just want me to know u got all you need.
But am I OK alone?
Cause here′s a monkey
If I need company; (nice monkey)
U comin′ over like u was clover.
I'm gonna cut it with my lawnmower.
U knockin′ at my, my door all tangled.
Your guilty conscience wrapped 'round your ankles.
I see you draggin′ it 'cross my floor now.
U feelin′ better. I'm feelin', I′m feelin′ worse now.
U gotta open, open that choke.
′Cause when you're here, the air it won′t clear.
And u just blowin', just blowin' smoke.
U got a blue feather bird on a golden swing.
It wears a ruby tipped crown but it don′t sing.
U keep bringin′ me gifts like it ain't no thing
But I thought u said goodbye.
I thought u let; let that bird fly. (there it goes)
Baby, I can′t wash you clean.
U got a match, well I got the gasoline.
Baby, redemption ain't free.
U gonna need more than u can get from me.
This river′s dry. Baby, can't wash u clean.
U gotta a new monkey bangin′ some tambourine.
It's got some big button eyes; it's made of velveteen.
U just want me to know u got all you need.
But am I OK alone?
Cause here′s a monkey
If I need company; (nice monkey)
U comin′ over like u was clover.
I'm gonna cut it with my lawnmower.
U knockin′ at my, my door all tangled.
Your guilty conscience wrapped 'round your ankles.
I see you draggin′ it 'cross my floor now.
U feelin′ better. I'm feelin', I′m feelin′ worse now.
