The final track on Jar of Flies is probably the most different from the rest of the songs, as it’s played in a swing/blues style (hence the title). The song appears to be a sequel of sorts to the previous track on the album Don’t Follow.
Swing on This Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Mother said, "Come home"
Father said, "Come home"
Sisters said, "Come home"
So my friends said, "Come home"
And I said:
[Chorus]
"Let me be, I'm all right
Can't you see I'm just fine?
Little skinny, okay
I'm asleep anyway"
[Verse 2]
Then I heard a voice
Said, "Son, you have a choice"
I then slapped my face
[Chorus]
Let me be, I'm okay
I'm awake anyway
It's too bright over here
I can shift, cannot steer
So I drive them away
For a while, then I stay
Little skinny, okay
I'm awake anyway
[Verse 3]
Now I have to go home
Do as when in Rome
[Chorus]
Let me be, I'm all right
Can't you see I'm just fine?
Little skinny, okay
I'm asleep anyway
Let me be, I'm okay
I'm awake anyway
[Guitar Solo]
[Outro]
Toby's still laughing
That sounds fucking pretty good
[?]'re laughing, it's like
That's tight as shit! What are you talking about? Ha hah!
