Dead Broke Black Hole

from 2016 Hit Singles by bradlee z

lyrics

so i stole this guitar from some low-life downtown
i've three times been broken by the thievin' dog
i woke up in a freezing teardrop shaped fountain
with my teeth on the ground
reflecting in the water, bloody and brown

you know you're three times dead broke
when they find you in a pile of needles
like an old christmas tree

you're really dead broke
when you wind up in a situation like me

to the west was a temple, to the east was a roar
never heard that before but i declined to overthink it
as i hung a sail in its wild wind, and it cut through my coat
like a mountain lion taking me by my throat

you know you're three times dead broke
when they find you in a pile of needles
like an old christmas tree

you're really dead broke
when you wind up in a situation like me

so i stole this guitar and some things for my home
a herman miller aeron chair
and a box of various decorative items
as a mild compensation for the ways i've been boned
it's impossible to catch it sleeping
but you'd never know unless you've seen it
it's a murderously inconvenient black hole
