Ben Harper - Temporary Remedy lyrics

i killed a snake with a bible

i was living a johnny cash song

i'm afraid for this i may be liable

so it's best i be moving along

just a temporary remedy

running through my veins

summer lasted through november

funny when it's gone you miss the cold

words spoken for a lifetime

we can never hear 'till we're told

just a temporary remedy

running through my veins

they tell me nothing is perfect

then tell me why is it a word

yesterday's news is tomorrow's blues

now they're perfectly blurred

just a temporary remedy

running through my veins
