This night calls for another man's death Imagining things I'm a paranoid mess Breaking down in a place like heaven Got a call for a drinking lesson Need some time to wake up Time to clear your mind Time before you erupt Need someone before you screw up Chorus: Oh mother, please let me know I'm calling home from way up the road I need my pride by my side I need my pride by my side I know you wanna beat my lover I know you wanna beat, beat my lover You've nowhere to go Now you're bleeding through every door Symbolic gesture for a card in your hand Shake it up with the coke in the sand I want more money than a bank can hold And all the things I've already sold Need some time to wake up Time to clear your mind Time before you erupt Need someone before you screw up Chorus: Oh mother, please let me know I'm calling home from way up the road I need my pride by my side I need my pride by my side I know you wanna beat my lover I know you wanna beat, beat my lover You've nowhere to go Now you're bleeding through every door Beat my lover I know you wanna beat, beat my lover You've nowhere to go Now you're bleeding all over the floor Ohoohoooohoooo... Chorus: Oh mother, please let me know I'm calling home from way up the road I need my pride by my side I need my pride by my side I know you wanna beat my lover I know you wanna beat, beat my lover You've nowhere to go Now you're bleeding through every door Beat my lover I know you wanna beat, beat my lover You've nowhere to go Now you're bleeding through every door
