Sugar mice lyrics

Artist  : Fish 
Song : Sugar mice
 

I was flicking through the channels on the TV
On a Sunday in Milwaukee in the rain
Trying to piece together conversations,
Trying to find out where to lay the blame

But when it comes right down to it there`s no use
trying to pretend
For when it gets right down to it there`s no one
here that`s left to blame,
Blame it on me, you can blame it on me
We`re just sugar mice in the rain

I heard Sinatra calling me down through the
floorboards
Where you pay a quarter for a partnership in
rhyme
To the jukebox crying in the corner
While the waitress is counting out the time

For when it comes right down to it there`s no use
trying to pretend
For when it gets right down to it there`s no one
really left to blame,
Blame it on me, you can blame it on me
We`re just sugar mice in the rain

I know what I feel, know what I want I know what
I am
Daddy took a raincheck
Cos I know what I want, know what I feel I know
what I need
Daddy took a raincheck, your daddy took a
raincheck
Ain`t no one in here that`s left to blame but me
Blame it on me, blame it on me

Well the toughest thing that I ever did was talk
to the kids on the phone
When I heard them asking questions I knew
That you were all alone, Can`t you understand
that the
Government left me out of work, I just couldn`t
stand the
Looks on the faces saying what a jerk

So if you want my address it`s number one
At the end of the bar
Where I sit with the broken angels clutching at
straws and
Nursing the scars, blame it on me, blame it on me
Sugar mice in the rain, your daddy took a
raincheck
Your daddy took a raincheck
