Lyrics[]

Hear that man say he's not cool 
He ain't no better than he ain't no fool 
Listen hard, listen a lot 
Care about everything 

But that man he's not wrong 
He's been talking about everyone for years 
He talks to himself 
He don't care for anyone 

I'm in a bottleneck
Standing up to my waist in it
Fighting to get hold of something new
Something good and something strong
I'm in a bottleneck
Now I'm up to my neck in it
Fighting to get a bite of something good
Something good and something strong

Fire, fear's got me hot 
Fear's got me burning, burning, burning 
Burning down to my soul 

Fire, tears in my eyes 
And I can’t decide which way to go 
And which way’s home anyhow 

I'm in a bottleneck
Standing up to my waist in it
Fighting to get hold of something new
Something good and something strong
I'm in a bottleneck
Now I'm up to my neck in it
Fighting to get a bite of something good
Something good and something strong

I'm in a bottleneck...
