interview in my pocket

i'm feeling broken

everything is out of my control

jump at the telephone

check the caller ID

slam it down

when it's who i don't want it to be

everybody tells me

i'm on their prayer list

go ahead

put me on the wheel

it does nothing for

my control fetish

break my bones

bounce my head

didn't i put in the hours

didn't i give up the sleep 

what the f**k is up with

people who worked with me

competing with me

they tell me how much they want it

they've convinced themselves

they're better than me

maybe they are

i have the best card to play

get me in the door

i'll plunk perfect down
