A Bumbling Reply

Now
I'm working, I'm up too late
Two hot dogs on my plate
And question batteries dying too soon

And I
Was naked to my soul
When you called to tell me why
I countered quick with a bumbling reply

Yeah, like I was just thinking about that
Don't know one else you got can put in
You just know it's just...uh...limited
I don' think I qualify
At least...now...
50/50 at best

And then
You asked me where've I been
I told you that I would be late
Lately out of my house, of my mind

New folk system just isn't
It just isn't, it just isn't
Uh

I offer you my soul
I offer you my eye
But most of all a bumbling reply
