Pigeons and Spies Lyrics

[Verse 1]
You are the pigeon
I am the spy
All we got in common is that we're both high
Watching the bald spots and bonnets walk by down below
Woah, woah-woah

[Verse 2]
You are the dinosaur
I am the ground
That shook to knock all you mo'fuckers out
All we have in common is one brutal sound
Watchin' the Pteranodons falling all around
Woah, woah-woah

[Chorus]
Woah-oh, I'm tired
And you're tired too
I wanna make big changes, but I'm not in the mood
And I'm dying
And you're dying too
All we got in common is I'm out here killing for two

[Interlude]

[Verse 3]
You are the bombers
I am the moms
I'm not sure where the next tragedy falls
All we have in common is that when they die
We both feel it inside
Woah, woah-woah

[Verse 4]
You are the locker room
I am the queer
Keenly aware you don't like that I'm here
All we have in common is that we hate me
All we have in common is where we'll both be

[Bridge]
Angry and old, and someday, we'll die
Someday, we'll start drinking at 8:45
Take me to the bathroom when I start to cry
Cover my mouth, and cover my eyes
Cover my soul, it's already died
Cover my soul, no, it's already died
'Cause I never had nothin' inside
I never had nothin' inside

[Chorus]
But I'm so tired
And you're tired too
I wanna make big changes, but I'm not in the mood
And I'm dyin'
And you're dyin' too
All we got in common is we're out here killing for two
We're killing for two

[Outro]
In this case, I am the me
And you are the you
All we've got in common is we're out here sweating out booze
