Cashier No. 9 - Oh Pity lyrics

Artist: Cashier No. 9

album: To the Death of Fun


I burned out at the fine old age of seventeen
They say I didn't have much a chance of winning 'round here
I know now with a look around at the casualties
I take my last chance of a life worth living
I count the days, they close in
Hope my guts and bones don't give in
I've seen it all and now I'm sick of it
I left a note, now I have to go
My life's been dragged through the dirt
I've an aching heart that's in tow
I'm not ungrateful when you say
"Take the money, honey, don't be shy!"
Lived my life chancing my honor and not a lot of lies
Caught up with me, soon enough I'm cold again
They say "Kill the body and the head will die for sure."
Kicked out and been kicked around for many years
Was in the right place, wrong time, doing nothing.
I count the days, they close in
Change my name and burn my clothes then
I've seen it all and now I'm sick of it
I left a note, now I have to go
My life's been dragged through the dirt
I've an aching heart that's in tow
I'm not ungrateful when you say
"Take the money honey, don't be shy!"
Lived my life chancing my honor and not a lot of lies
I'd stay for a while
If I had your smile
If I had your pretty little life
So long from me
I've untied another casualty
My life's been dragged through the dirt
But I'm getting out alive
I climb off and come loose
I'm getting out and tryin' to find my use
I'm off in search of the life that has always been denied
