Go find a man covered in blood
A man who needs some change
Come and asked me when it's nice, and I'm feeling good
High on cocaine, mistaken for pain
Well, I just need some kind of documentary
I hear there's a good one out on Amendment Thirteen
I've got nothing to give, but I got something to kill
I'm white and free, an' I've long had my fill
I've been sleeping with strangers, what's it to you?
Yes, I've been sleeping with strangers, got them Queer Mad Blues
Oh, I've been waiting for a while
We sleep until four, and we stay until nine
If the sun ain't up, how do you know you survived?
The trains roll out, the trains roll in
The thing about this room is a body's been bled
And something ain't right, yeah, something's gone wrong
Bob Dylan just released a 17-minute song
And I think about Lou Reed and his album Berlin
And then I think about how Lou Reed treated his Trans girlfriend
I pick up the pills, I need to get some sleep
I like them, they make me feel believed
When I take a wrong turn, I don't know how to die
I don't even talk no more about suicide
I've been sleeping with strangers, what's it to you?
I've been sleeping with strangers, got them Queer Mad Blues
Oh, I've been waiting for a while
You knew what's coming up, you saw the mountain up ahead
I felt green in my eyes, and I saw blood on my bed
And I learned how to smoke, and I bought a new car
I looked death in the face, that bitch gave me a scar
Let's pick up some beers, let's take a drive out West
I've got some friends out there, plus goddamn I could use the rest
Then mama heard when the snow came down
It broke the wood stove, so Laura walked out into the clouds
This isn't a cave, this ain't the Northwest
This isn't a game, and this is not Texas
Then she left us, and the news came down
I was in Austin, Texas when I donned a purple gown
I've been sleeping with strangers, what's it to you?
Yes, I've been sleeping with strangers
I've been sleeping with strangers, hmm
I've been sleeping with strangers
I, I've been waiting for a while
You'll see I've been waiting for a while
Oh, you'll see, you'll see I've been waiting for a while
Oh, you'll see, well, I've been waiting for a while
You, you'll see, well, I've been waiting for a while
♪
Yes, I've been waiting for a while
You'll see I've been waiting for a while
Oh, you'll see I've been waiting for a while
