One to Three - Les Savy Fav

Don’t place your bets on me just yet

I’m only half-way home

This racket takes it’s toll

My scams are smooth and cold

I’m bathing in a fountain

And I’m not getting old

I crave to catch an edge;

Break bones and cartilage

Send back the architects of Carthage

Take down the flag

Forget the pledge

I’m only half-way home

Puff out your chest and step to the sun

Its done its best to burn everyone

Whose gotten half-way home

Cut me in 2 3

1 2 save, 1 2 waste, and 1 2 eat

I cut myself in 3

1 4 us, 1 4 them, and 1 4 me

Drinking pots of coffee

Till every drop is gone

Painting a portrait

Of Ponce deLeon

Out of clipped nail

From the hands and the feet

Of every lost and stubborn soul

I hope to ever meet
