sugar mice þarký sözü

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
