Rags to Rags
Eels

there's a spider crawling on the bathroom mirror
right on top of my right eye
and i can't stop staring back
how did i get this way
take a big look at a living lie

rags to rags and rust to rust
how do you stand when you've been crushed
so rags to riches was a bust

sometimes i dream about it
what it's like back home
the railroad tracks and the pussywillow
but i had to leave it
now i go back whenever my tired head hits the pillow

rags to rags and rust to rust
how do you stand when you've been crushed
so rags to riches was a bust
busted once again

well i'll show them one day
that i can buy and sell the world
and one day i'll come through my american dream
but it won't mean a fucking thing

rags to rags and rust to rust
how do you stand when you've been crushed
so rags to rags and rust to rust
don't let me go
