Speedy Ortiz Tiger Tank Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Was it my teeth or my tongue that said, "Glue shut your lips, let us take a rest"?
Oh, my mouth is a factory for every toxic part of speech I spew

Limb from every limb to the

[Outro]
Don't even care if they take my legs
I've limped before, I could limp again
Though my limp is not able to display how very awfully I'm doing
