Your Other Man
Jandek · Other Songs - Jandek
Well, I guess there's not much left to do
Go on, see your other man
Walk up the stairs
That's where the stars are
Go and see your other man
Other man
Your man
Well, you wouldn't believe it tastes like candy
Gimme a fork, yeah gimme a fork
Eat some potato
Shades are falling
Shades are falling
Your Other Man
