Rusted root magenta radio lyrics

Went down to a second hand store

to buy some clothes 

like I used to wear before

Curly haired Sally says she 

likes me a little better this way



Everthing I wish for 

I know I could

Only if everything I could 

I didn’t wish for.

It’s a good day in the USA 

stripped down 

to your Uncle long johns

Well no thanks 

I’m good 

here in my magenta radio



Do do do do do do do do do.....

Here In my magenta radio

Well can I say something; 

just a little more 

I bet you we could talk 

into the morning honey.

I bet you we never 

see the morning 

without a hornet 

buzzing around our door

Cause everytime I look 

into your mirror 

I see smoke from your gun

We both got itchy triggers 

and we wear them for fun.

We got two stories to tell 

and I think one of them is wrong

Well no thanks 

I’m good 

here in my magenta radio

Do do do do do do do......



Hold me my lady

Cause we all love 

even when we try

Hold me my lady

Cause we all love 

even when we try



When we try 

we don’t know our name

When we try, 

but we don’t know our name



I see us kissing the Earth 

lovers of our way to be

Trying on shoes 

that don’t really fit our feet

All in a dream we got burnt

All in a dream we got hurt...

But we try, we try & we try & we 

Hold me my lady 

cause we all love 

even when we try

Hold me my lady 

cause we all love 

even when we try

But we don’t know our name
