lyrics

Well he tracked you
Down from an old postmark
Like a gumshoe
Renowned for clever remarks
I can't blame you
As such for the lack of repentance
Cause the pain of the crime
Is much worse than the time
Of the sentence

Darling what's the use?
That you've come all this way
For a glass of chartreuse?

So I built you
Up from the wreckage I found
And I filled you
A cup to turn over your crown
I can't blame you
As such for the lack of reproach
Cause the odds of the book
Are much worse than they look
On approach

Darling what's the use?
Don't come all this way
For just a glass of chartreuse

So you drained it
In the span of a single swallow
Like he feigned it
A man with a heart so callow
I can't blame you
As such for the lack of elation
Cause the pain in your life
A smoking forty-five
conflagration

Darling what's the use?
You didn't come all this way
For just a glass of chartreuse
