Waiting on a Call Futurebirds

Hot tub chillin' in the great north woods
Went up in flames like we knew it would
Under the meteor shower
The people on this sound they ain't fuckin' around
'Cause they know winter is coming

Spent the morning out walking the yard alone
A pale face glued to a telephone
A girl's pretty sick
She ain't ready to quit
You can tell by the way that she's carryin' on laughin' through the percocet trip
And I'm out in the yard
Just crying like a bitch
She knew she'd smile and say
"Oh now my dear boy
"Oh now my dear boy
Don't cry for some old lady," she said
"Oh now my dear boy."

Pretty blonde waiting on the other line
I want so bad to convince her things will work out fine
She says your life is a risk
And that's the end of it
Well getting out of bed is a risk
It's all I got to get
It's really all there is
Just wish you'd hold on to my word
Just wish you'd hold on to my word
Just wish you'd hold on to my word
