Tobacco In The Sink - Lyrics - Bastro

Bastro was an American post-hardcore band which was active in the late 1980s and early 1990s. The band's main line-up consisted of David Grubbs on guitar, Clark Johnson on bass guitar, and John McEntire on drums. The band also experimented with use of piano, organ and musique concrÃ¨te compositions, foreshadowing McEntire's and Grubbs' subsequent musical projects.

I'm not sure if I made it clear That I can't even focus my eyes Because I ordered another one of those blue ones With a scorpion the size of whose tail I don't like I ordered a rustred one With a crawfish at the bottom The surface aflame I think that drink went straight to my eyes Made them too soft to even hold shape So blink & blink & rub three times And I still can't focus my eyes They don't like being cooked over easy That's why they won't cooperate I put a cigarette in your mouth Wrong end first And you chewed it down to the filter I think that drink went straight to my eyes Made them too soft to even hold shape 'Cause when I woke up There was tobacco in the sink You wouldn't open your eyes Was the crawfish I think So blink & blink & rub three times And I still can't focus my eyes They don't like being cooked over easy That's why they won't cooperate I put a cigarette in your mouth Wrong end first And you chewed it down to the filter I think that drink went straight to my eyes Made them too soft to even hold shape
