The Blood Brothers Spit Shine Your Black Clouds Lyrics:
you're walking through the forests where they feed
the trees broken glass. john lennon and the
rolling stones crooning in plastic bags. spit
shine your black luck now, baby. you turn on the
radio, the speakers spit tangled talk. everything
is war and who's fucked their way to the top. but
they'll eat black clouds we all eat black clouds.
you're working on a cruise serving caviar to the
cruel. they repossessed your heart; you're making
payments on your face, too. spit shine your black
clouds now, baby. and what if your religion turns
out to be a cruel joke, and you're fucked beyond
all hope? gonna spit shine your black clouds now,
baby. first you stayed in bed all day and walked
around all night. then you threw your phone away
and slept beneath the freeway underpass. your
mother slit her throat after your father's heart

sit and watch the ships loading their freight and
pale pelicans feeding their young and grasp at the
barbarically charming sun. out on the weekend
talked your way out of a first date. said your
uncle was famous, by then it was too late. spit
shine your black luck now, baby. fall asleep to
the tv-the cops are talking tough to the cameras
in the backseat, to the audience at home. but
they'll eat black clouds we all eat black clouds.
once you knew a girl with skin like a sapphire
sun. took you back to her apartment, told you
everything you did wrong. spit shine your black
luck. spit shine your black luck. the sky's so
desolate like flesh on a skull-shaped balloon. you
sit in bed writing love letters to yourself. no
black ink on the black paper, bay. stare at the
ceiling, fall into dreamless sleep. day climbs
your chimney, taps you on the shoulder blade,
"spit shine your black clouds now,
baby." all your best friends grow up to be
successful actresses. all your bitter enemies died
of liver failure in kent, washington trailers. all
your brothers made babies until their brains
turned brown. the world's lounging longways on an
unbridled black cloud.
