Lyrics

Drifter.

Now listen, you don’t wanna hear another bedtime story
About the prince and the princess
A singalong from the same old repertory

The sign over my head
It’s been there all the time, but you never read it
A stone, that’s what I am deep in my heart

Oh, don’t lose yourself in me, ‘cause I’m a drifter, yeah
Oh, don’t lose yourself in me, ‘cause I’m a drifter, yeah

Now why, why you keep coming to my hideaway at Danger Falls
The place is gloomy, there’s no escape for anyone
On this side of the bedroom wall

The sign over my door
It’s been there all the time, it says “ I can’t help the poor”
A stone, that’s what I am, deep in my heart

Oh, don’t lose yourself in me, ‘cause I’m a drifter, yeah
Oh, don’t lose yourself in me, ‘cause I’m a drifter, yeah

Only little children still believe in fairytales
Full of stereotypes of faithful wives
Of one-eyed giants that never fail
Good and bad will make a match
From now until the last taboo
Didn’t they ever tell you that Little Red Riding Hood
Devoured the Wolf...
