"My Ticket's In" 02:08
lyrics

"My Ticket's In" Stumbled Broadway Beer sweet sweat Sticky fingers Ice cream drip I don't give a shit about your sobby backstory Your violent friends No matter inhibitions My ticket's in You're an angel in your Dainty boardwalk petting You are sugar Dusted over, sprinkled on Not a thought about your daddy's shotgun promise His angry eyes No matter the conditions My ticket's in

"Sugar Up, Baby" I know a place where we can sugar up, baby I've got a lock on your sugar up spot Don't move, don't make a sound Don't need no talk in town I've got a lock on your sugar up spot I know a drive where we can sugar up, baby I know a street where we can sugar up sweet Don't move, don't make a sound Don't need no talk in town I know a street where we can sugar up sweet I know a world where we can sugar up, baby We'll find the toys fit for the boys Don't move, don't make a sound Don't need no talk in town We'll find the toys fit for the boys

"Intermission" There are no lyrics to this song. It's an instrumental, genius.

"The Old Gray Mare" Well, the old gray mare won't see this line no more Well, the old gray mare won't see this line no more Well, the old gray mare won't see this line She's only taking on Father Time The old gray mare won't see this line no more Well, the old gray mare done run and jumped the fence Well, the old gray mare done run and jumped the fence Well, the old gray mare done jumped the fence And now she makes her penitence The old gray mare done run and jumped the fence And now the old gray mare won't see no more We left her rotting on the rendering floor Sagging skin and broken meat The only thing useful is her feet Well, the old gray mare done up and run away Well, the old gray mare done up and run away Well, the old gray mare done run away And buried our bones down in the clay The old gray mare done up and run away And now the old gray mare won't see no more We left her rotting on the rendering floor Sagging skin and broken meat The only thing useful is her feet

lyrics

"The Zipper" Be brave, my son This isn't your fear This is the day that you will hold dear Shall we pray? Be strong, my dear God gives nothing to you that you're not prepared for Be with me on this ride I will be at your side Remember Remember I will always always love you Shall we pray, sinners and saints? Let go, my love God takes nothing from you that you can't survive Here with me on this ride You will be by my side Remember Remember The Zipper comes for everyone It comes for everyone Even you Even you, my son
