No Shoes in the Coffee Shop (Or Socks) Songtext
von Hot Mulligan

Retrospect is best
I′ll buy a camera and record some stuff
All I thought is that it could be fun
The question that came next
Is if my memories lead to stark regret
Well then why would I watch?

For every crater on the moon
There's an empty beer around the room
Only wanted sleep
Could you show me my options?
Nothing left to drink
Holding on so the nausea might subside

So what then?
Do nothing for fear, I′ll remember what I've been
No prodigal son, maybe an inconvenience
Poison tends to taste sweet
Failures tend to think they know
What's good for themselves but then I see


For every crater on the moon
There′s an empty beer around the room
Only wanted sleep
Could you show me my options?
Nothing left to drink
Holding on ′til the nausea breaks

Is this the punishment I've earned?
Relive who I′ve been when at my worst
Every single night, looking for a distraction
Waiting for the sun to rise
Pretty sight for some hollow eyes

Peeling at labels, the minor stimulation keeps my mind up
Laying in bed, there's a brave assumption I won′t try to crawl out
Hiding my face when in public, let's avoid all confrontation
They say you can′t force it, then how can I change myself?

The question that came next
Is if my memories lead to stark regret
Well then why would I watch?

For every crater on the moon
There's an empty beer around the room
Only wanted sleep
Could you show me my options?
Nothing left to drink
Holding on 'til the nausea breaks


Is this the punishment I′ve earned?
Relive who I′ve been when at my worst
Every single night looking for a distraction
Waiting for the sun to rise
Pretty sight for some hollow eyes

Retrospect is best
It's always there so it can hold me back
From the things that I want
