stuck down a mineshaft

i hear you're stuck down a mineshaft
baby, how'd you manage that?
did you think you could bore a hole that big
and then put it all back?
you said you needed a little time and
you went digging for some diamonds
and now you find you're stuck down a mineshaft
with your latest doormat

i hear you're stuck down a mineshaft
well baby, ho fucking hum
now i guess you'll have all the time you need
to perfect playing deaf and dumb
you said our love was getting old and
you went searching for your pot of gold
but now you're
stuck down a mineshaft
scraping for crumbs

i hear you're stuck down a mineshaft
baby, how does that feel?
does it make your life easier
now that your misery is real?
you said you needed a life that was finer
and you would dig to asia minor
if you had to but you're
stuck down a mineshaft
wishing you were here with me
wishing you were here with me
wishing you were here

end.
