Bourbon Princess – Stretcher lyrics

Come
Train is coming
Hop aboard
The light's still humming
Your shadow's blue
In the morning sunrise
And you're cold in your coat

Grab my thumb
Squeeze as hard as your tired arms will let you
It's ok
Just lay down
Can you tell us how much you've taken
Can you tell us when you began to feel unwell
Hell I guess we'll try to save you

I see that guy on the rooftop
I never knew what blue felt like
Everything's so soft & cold
Hello goodbye
My love I need a little assistance
I cannot move

They cut my pant legs open and they stole my shoes

Everything green & living
Sweats while waiting quiet in the night
The sirens came and blew on by
They check for your ID
So they can call your next of kin
But all they find is a piece of foil
And the trouble that you're in

I feel a lot like a brandy velvet
I never knew what death felt like
I got some pennies in my pockets if you want just
Help yourself
Hello goodbye
My love I need a little assistance
I cannot breathe

They cut my pant legs open and they rolled up my sleeves

I am the sun
I am the happy sun that all the children draw
I am the crescent moon that hangs upon your wall
My fingers scribble in the bottom of the sea
I'm pretty sure that naked stretcher was for me

I am the happy sun that all the children draw
I am the crescent moon that hangs upon your wall
My fingers scribble in the bottom of the sea
I'm pretty sure that naked stretcher was for me
