Lyrics
The thumbtack holes in the wood-panel wall
Where Polly Jean Harvey stared down the hall
Summer I turned fifteen, sticky with the heat
Made a promise to her on a ripped-out car seat

That green water shimmers where the light gets thin
Is this the only stage I'm ever gonna get?
This town's a debt you pay with sweat.
[Outro]
Yeah, the choke-weed gospel
Screaming it all back.
