From the album Shed Some Light
Lyrics
Smells Like Roses
A couple a more tickets
A couple a more points
Leaves you on the road
With high insurance rates
A couple a mouths to feed
All out of money
Lands you in that spot
Where you don’t want to be
And all that we live for
And all that we work towards
Is always on the brink
I made it by on the skin on my teeth
And some friends pulling
A couple a more strings
Always on the brink
So thank god for fallen’ in
And coming’ up smelling’ like roses
Smells like roses
Sure smells like roses to me
Sure smells like roses
Smells like roses
The car’s broke down again
So we’re crippled ‘til Friday yea
We need another pay day
To carry us along
We took a big bite
I hope we can chew it
I think between the both of us
We can do it
And all that we live for
And all that we work towards
Is always on the brink
I made it by on the skin on my teeth
And some friends pulling
A couple a more strings
Always on the brink
So thank god for fallen’ in
And coming’ up smelling’ like roses
Smells like roses
Sure smells like roses to me
Sure smells like roses
Smells like roses
Let’s not judge life’s value
On financial situations
If you lose your soul
It don’t matter what you have
Oh we’ve got our freedom with in our love
Smells like roses
