Miracle Mile (Explicit) Lyrics
Miracle Mile - Silkworm
Written by:Andy Cohen/Tim Midgett/Michael Dahlquist
I was caught
In a bad dream I was locked
Out on love
I got stuck
In the slipstream until I lucked out
For once
In the sky behind this club I saw her
Face high rise
It didn't want to lose it on that
Miracle mile but we
Played at CBGB on a 4th of July
The 3 am
Sound man wanted to kill us then
He was strung out on ex lax
He was f**ked
In his lungs
He got shot out on avenue A while sucking on
Some sh*t's tongue
He would dress up like a where just to get
Lucky once in a while I didn't
Want to lose it on that
Miracle mile
But then we played at the knitting factory
For fifteen people
Thirty bucks
And someone broke into the Godd**n truck
He had sh*t
In his pants he had a needle in his arm
He just stole a couple sleeping bags that he needed
To stay warm
But he couldn't even walk we found him
Crawling in a garbage pile
I didn't
Want to lose it on that
Miracle mile
But we met with even greater misfortune in the armpit
Of the America's
Four d**b hicks from hunger
We got ripped off
By these a**holes at a fort
Lee garage
They didn't weild that motherf**king leaf Spring
Now those sparks
Were a mirage
Here we hallucinated
Freely huddled
Shivering on the tile
And I didn't want to lose it on that
Miracle mile
But six hundred dollars later
We're still drinking bad coffee
Couldn't sleep
The stomachs were full of pizza grease
Well I called her up long distance
There was freezing on the line
Did she trust me
Could she throw me with a strong breeze from behind
Oh no and no again no f**king sh*t
A crazy smile
And I didn't want to lose it on that
Miracle mile
But the stage was set for tension so I
Cried and I spit
I drooled and wept
And I hit the gas for Pittsburgh
I was caught
In a bad dream I was out
On the nod
I got stuck
In the slipstream until I blacked out
Until I blacked out
Thank God
