My Little Disaster - Rhett Miller, Black Prairie

My little disaster asleep on the floor

Drank till she couldn’t stand up anymore

Her friends are all strangers, she’s weird as hell

Shes a short story I never can tell

Sweet little drunkard too clever by half

I bet you she never once stifled a laugh

She lets it all out, she leaves it to hang

She winds it all up and goes out with a bang

My little disaster rolls over at dawn

Says «Remember when we woke up and got it on?»

I ask «Is that right now?»

and she says «Indeed.»

It’s never too early for your a’la me

My lady of leisure looms large in the room

Force of nature, foreteller of doom

Might not have a mattress but she has got me

Tomorrow I’ve got no idea where I’ll be

Life is too short to say no when you’re asked

To share a shag rug or a pull off a flask

Right now there’s one thing I do know for sure

My little disasters asleep on the floor

My little disasters asleep on the floor
