lyrics

There was a man named Jim
Found his feet found his face
Found his life upon the floor
Cuz in a moment of weakness
That man mistook the sweetness
For the war

So come down come down come down
Baby take your blush and paint a frown

It was on a whim
Just a couple of cats
Cool black on black they wore
And in a moment of violence
A silence so completely claimed the score
So come mirror-fine slate
Come failure to relate
Come walking all alone
Until you feel inside your bones
Your going to break

And come down come down come down
Baby take your brush and scratch the ground

Well Jim say it don’t matter anyway
But Jim, man, that cat could kill a cockeye
With his hands

It’s just a matter of time
It’s just a feeling of fate
With a sleight of his hand
The magician lays his plan
And walks away
So come folk law line
Come polish til it shines
Come tripping through your days
Until you wake up and amaze at suicide

And come down come down come down
