letra de that arse kicking song - tim rogers & the twin set
well…
the beer on his breath almost took my breath away
and his cigarette cough wiped on off the smile right from my face
but there was a twinkle in his eye
or maybe it was a tear
said, “if you play that tune this afternoon
i’ll shout you ’til next year.”
“sing that ass-kickin’ song
where you left your brains in hong kong
and every wise thing you did turned out dumb.”
“and play the one about the girl who stood up
and breezed through your whole world
so i know i ain’t the only one
i know i ain’t the only one.”
well…
he pulled a tarot card from his breast pocket
creased with grease and wine
and covered a can in cellophane to save it for all time
“hey timmy, that’s just how she looked, man –
the high priestess of all divine
while she was dragged to divinity
yeah, i was left here behind.”
so whether it’s gambling or fortune-telling
it’s magic and a curse
there’s hope and then there’s h-ll
the whims of the universe
and we’ll fall for it every single time
the thrill of the chase
but there’s a-one fine hand that’ll make you stand
then wave you as you break
“a-play that ass-kickin’ song
where you left your brains in hong kong
and every wise thing you did turned out dumb
yeah, a-play the one about the girl who stood up
and breezed through your whole world
so i know i ain’t the only one
yeah, i know i ain’t the only one
here you go
she kicked my dirt from here to bendigo
then again, the birds fill and the rest, i don’t know
well, i gave him my hotel bed, and a fist of free-drink cards
he needed rest like i need edges to head out beneath the stars
i sang his song
and then we drank like dogs from a bowl – arf!
and i felt ashamed that i’d sung about something i barely know
i sung that ass-kickin’ song
where i left my brains in hong kong
every wise thing i did, yeah, turned out dumb
i played the one about the girl who stood up
and breezed through our whole world
now i know i ain’t the only one
yeah, i know i ain’t the only one
