Second Pick Twice Not Out

from Keep Passing The Open Windows by The Pristines

lyrics

I can’t send you happiness
When I can’t find you health
Won’t promise you tomorrow’s
I can’t burden you with wealth.

As the whirlpool sucks you into him
It’s spitting me straight out
I can’t swim against the pull of her
And it keeps on hurting – reaching out

Keeps on hurting reaching out.


Did I let myself believe again?
Why do I do I that?
She shakes her head & laughs at me
Too often I’ve seen that

And I think that he’s a loser
But to him I’m losing out
So what does that make me then, dear?
I’m a second pick, twice not out

I’m a second pick, twice not out

I’m a second pick, twice struck out
