Tattoo of the seventh shield
Still wet on my skin
You're all crumpled up at the curb there
I think I'm gonna take you in
Always had to follow my instincts
Usually I'm out on my own
You there by the road, wet and helpless
What happens if I take you home?
Well, you may forget the whys and wheres
Of an old tattoo on your forearm there
But usually you recall the day you got one
And usually it fades in the sun
Headed for a season in exile
As the oracle predicted
According to reliable sources
In thirty days I'm getting evicted
Trying not to scratch where it itches
It takes a certain level of disipline
Not even half a second by the light switch
Let the future flood right in
Well, you may forget the whys and wheres
Of an old tattoo on your forearm there
But usually you recall the day you got one
And usually it fades in the sun
Usually the lines grow faint
Like old house paint
Just a way to mark the years gone by
You lay on the couch three weeks
Until the colour came back into your cheeks
I'd seen ones like you before
Plenty came through before
Legend on the shield in Greek
"What's that say?" you said
I gave you an answer that I'd thought you buy
All of this will disappear in the twinkling of an eye
Well, you may forget the whys and wheres
Of an old tattoo on your forearm there
But usually you recall the day you got one
And usually it fades in the sun
But not this one
Still wet on my skin
You're all crumpled up at the curb there
I think I'm gonna take you in
Always had to follow my instincts
Usually I'm out on my own
You there by the road, wet and helpless
What happens if I take you home?
Well, you may forget the whys and wheres
Of an old tattoo on your forearm there
But usually you recall the day you got one
And usually it fades in the sun
Headed for a season in exile
As the oracle predicted
According to reliable sources
In thirty days I'm getting evicted
Trying not to scratch where it itches
It takes a certain level of disipline
Not even half a second by the light switch
Let the future flood right in
Well, you may forget the whys and wheres
Of an old tattoo on your forearm there
But usually you recall the day you got one
And usually it fades in the sun
Usually the lines grow faint
Like old house paint
Just a way to mark the years gone by
You lay on the couch three weeks
Until the colour came back into your cheeks
I'd seen ones like you before
Plenty came through before
Legend on the shield in Greek
"What's that say?" you said
I gave you an answer that I'd thought you buy
All of this will disappear in the twinkling of an eye
Well, you may forget the whys and wheres
Of an old tattoo on your forearm there
But usually you recall the day you got one
And usually it fades in the sun
But not this one
