Artist: The Elected
Song: Bank And Trust

well she gets real mean when she's drunk
and she finally fell asleep and I'm glad
said "the only way you got as far as you did
is cause of me, your songs suck"

and i'm stuck in this american town
and on the streets the stores closed
and the snow came down
and the only friend i had here, well he moved away
went back to dallas, ran out of money

so when the bills have all been paid,
and the money has all been saved
we're just as sad as we ever were
selling out to the bank and trust

next morning just after dawn
on the side of my bed with just a towel on
she said "i'm sorry, i didn't mean it
i'll help you finish your song"

so when the bills have all been paid
and the money has all been paid
we're still as bad as we ever were
selling out to the bank and trust
bank and trust
alright

oh and i met this girl from montgomery
a twenty-six year old with a five year old baby
"yeah i had her when i was young
and her daddy's long gone
but that's alright
i think she saved me

i just feel stuck in this american town
i finally got a good job
it'd just be dumb to move now
it's just somedays i can
i can hardly move
much less move away

so when the bills have all been paid
and the money has all been saved,
we're still as sad as we ever were.
selling out to the bank and trust

the bank and trust
the bank and trust
the man you trust...
