Sieve and scissors, Dogtooth sisters, Snow and rain
Laid down in a dark wood dreaming
Woke up to the sunlight streaming down
Through the redwood trees
Lazy bones, Pinky rings
Stale champagne and an empty bed
For the comedown king
Blood from a cherry, Sand from a rose
Do what you will or do what your told
Just don't, ask me to name names
Drain that barrel, Fill that pipe
Let the big red head do her dance all night
Backbeat mama make you feel all right
Groove'n it loose when I'm getting to tight
And in the dark days
When's there's a cold on the ground
Black water churning
Beckoning you come down
Hitched my ride to the Showboat Queen
Went overboard in New Orleans
Good lord will'n, That sun gonna rise and
Shine a light on this mystery
Faded days, Lunar and suede
Dreamless night in the white walled room
Of no escape
Thoughts in a tangle love for a loss
Stars on the ceiling coins to be tossed
And bones, to be laid away
Torn from love, left in disgrace
Hunted and haunted but still with a smile
On my face
Angry sun, turquoise sky
Silver tears the longest spoon the whitest lie
Look down your noses build more fences
The will is the wisdom to come to our senses
And see the open space inside
A beggars moon, Enough to light my way Sieve and scissors, Dogtooth sisters, Snow and rain Laid down in a dark wood dreaming Woke up to the sunlight streaming down Through the redwood trees Lazy bones, Pinky rings Stale champagne and an empty bed For the comedown king Blood from a cherry, Sand from a rose Do what you will or do what your told Just don't, ask me to name names Drain that barrel, Fill that pipe Let the big red head do her dance all night Backbeat mama make you feel all right Groove'n it loose when I'm getting to tight And in the dark days When's there's a cold on the ground Black water churning Beckoning you come down Hitched my ride to the Showboat Queen Went overboard in New Orleans Good lord will'n, That sun gonna rise and Shine a light on this mystery Faded days, Lunar and suede Dreamless night in the white walled room Of no escape Thoughts in a tangle love for a loss Stars on the ceiling coins to be tossed And bones, to be laid away Torn from love, left in disgrace Hunted and haunted but still with a smile On my face Angry sun, turquoise sky Silver tears the longest spoon the whitest lie Look down your noses build more fences The will is the wisdom to come to our senses And see the open space inside Explain Request ×
