Oshkosh Bend (Alternative Version) - Moriarty

It was cold when it came

I laid my cards plain to see

They told me I had nothing to blame

They told me I had nothing to blame

My backbone's broken and the river's swollen

The cars are purring and the leaves are pouring

The sidewalk's empty and the street is slippery

The lights are dim just like the people at the party I was at

The people at the party I was at

Oh I gotta move, I wanna split

I'm pulling on a string that's coming to an end

The last one broke on a bend

I lost a hat and sat with a duck

The last one broke on a bend

I ain't got nothing to pluck

I ain't got nothing to fuck

I ain't got nothing at all

It was cold when it came

I had to duck to see the bus

Raging down on the cusp of my clustered lens

They told me I had nothing to blame

They told me I had nothing to blame

Oh the seats were warm and the birds they swarmed

The place was bright and it felt just right

My backbone's swollen and the river's broken

The cars are purring and the leaves are pouring

The sidewalk's empty and the street is slippery

The lights are dim just like the people at the party I was at

The people at the party I was at

I gotta move I wanna split

I'm pulling on a string that's coming to an end

The last one broke on a bend

I lost a hat and sat with a duck

The last one broke on a bend

I ain't got nothing to fuck
