Mule Lyrics – Orville Peck

[Verse 1]
Come take a walk with me, my darling
Spend some time out on my own
I went away to find what happened to my mind
I think I found it partly, I don’t know
Hollywood, Babylon, big houses on the hill
All the beachwood debutantes playing fu*k, marry or kill
You can look back with regret, but you’re bound to hurt your neck
I try not looking down, but it’s a skill

[Chorus]
And if it seems I’m losing track of what I’m saying
It’s just that January felt so cruel
It may look like I’m fine, but you’ll realize in time
You’ve been talking to a man turned mule

[Verse 2]
Somebody save me from the night time
Morning always feels okay
And perhaps this need to run
Is my attempt to chase the sun
I think about that every other day

[Chorus]
And if it seems I’m losing track of what I’m saying
It’s just that January felt so cruеl
It may look like I’m fine, but you’ll realizе in time
You’ve been talking to a man turned mule

[Bridge]
And, oh, I still got a ways to go
And, oh, it may seem like I changed, I know
And, oh, it’s not change I think it’s more like coming home
Baby, I’m coming home

[Verse 3]
So hurry up and let’s keep walking

If I stop too long, who knows what I might say?
I don’t believe in God but praying’s all I’ve got
It’s better than the urge to fade away

[Chorus]
And if it seems I’m losing track of what I’m saying
Just don’t mistake me for a fool
It may look like I’m fine, but you’ll realize in time
You’ve been talking to a man turned mule
You’ve been talking to a man turned mule
