I Need a Teacher - Hiss Golden Messenger

Love me harder

Cry like thunder

Kick the floorboards

Paint it a different color

'Nother year older

Debt slightly deeper

Paycheck smaller

Goddamn, I need a teacher

Rock me, Daddy, I’m still your kid, ah

The ways to you are oh, so very different

Beauty in the broken American moment

Rock me, Daddy, happiness ain’t free

I see where you’re at, I know you can see me

Beauty in the broken American moment

Tell the truth, dear

Don’t be jaded

That’s no way to play it

To say it, to feel it

Lord, make me thankful

Though it ain’t easy

Give it away freely

It’ll come back to you eventually

Rock me, Daddy, I’m still your kid, ah

The ways to you are oh, so very different

Beauty in the broken American moment

Rock me, Daddy, happiness ain’t free

I see where you’re at, I know you can see me

Beauty in the broken American moment

Rock me, Daddy, I’m still your kid, ah

The ways to you are oh, so very different

Beauty in the broken American moment

Rock me, Daddy, happiness ain’t free

I see where you’re at, I know you can see me

Beauty in the broken American moment
