Cartoon Gold Lyrics

I'm not good with numbers I just count on knowing when I'm high enough A mule with only two legs counting steps Toward dangling carrots don't add up
I think about you when I can And even sometimes when I can't I do Once the driver knows you got good sense He takes away the carrots too
Getting all excited, finding nothing That was never there before It's like bringing flowers to your Mama And tracking dog shit all over the floor
Jesus made the flowers But it took a dog to make the story good I think about you when I can And sometimes when I don't I probably should
Tending bar in L.A. after dark Must be like mining cartoon gold Rocks that won't cooperate And tools that drive you crazy must get old
I think about you when I can And sometimes when I do I still get caught Sitting in a bar in L.A. after dark With my sunglasses on
