Mike Doughty - 40 Grand In The Hole lyrics

40 grand in the hole

scraping my dreams out of the sugar bowl

my love for you's corrupt

write down the words and then I snort them up

when will I love someone?

When will someone be mine?

40 grand in the hole

I'm gonna open it up and let my yearning shine

Hours that I have slept

Slumping down down like a narcolept

Surrendering to joy

Standing in line at Teriyaki Boy

When will I hear the click?

When will I know that it is time to split?

What is the use of it?

What is my life without the heart at risk?
