My Teeth Hurt Songtext
von Ezra Furman

I look out from my own eyes like a diver from a mask
I′m deep inside a worldview I know can never last
My teeth hurt
The cause unclear
Pull out some black material lodged in my inner ear
My teeth hurt
I don't know why
I refuse to call this living life and I refuse to die


I turn the amp up high and my incisors start to scream
The treble′s like a root canal, the bass is oral surgery
I turn the music louder as a test of my endurance
I don't believe in Novocaine or have dental insurance
My teeth hurt
And I don't care
The ache inside reminds my mind my body′s really there
That′s why my teeth hurt
But I don't complain
When pleasure lets you down, you learn to lean into the pain

I look out from my own eyes like a diver from a mask
I don′t know how I'm doing lately, fuck you if you ask
My teeth hurt
But I don′t seek a cure
I'm not sure I can bite the hand that feeds me anymore
I′m sure my teeth hurt
But again, I don't know why
I brushed and brushed, I must just be a teeth hurt kind of guy
