At night your grandmother dies on a bed of chamomile |
| [00:12.152] |
And the Virgin Mary stuck her head out |
| [00:16.071] |
from the wall it scared you |
| [00:19.510] |
So you cried by floral bedside |
| [00:23.415] |
until the telephone rang in the next room |
| [00:28.085] |
It was six-six-six from a soldier |
| [00:32.877] |
who was hysterical on a toilet seat |
| [00:36.639] |
And you could tell he was good looking |
| [00:40.726] |
just by the way that he would speak |
| [00:44.876] |
And you both sob like little cherries |
| [00:49.167] |
being crushed between my fingers |
| [00:55.200] |
|
| [01:02.620] |
I drop the pits on tile floors |
| [01:05.993] |
and they echo like a tongueless mouth |
| [01:10.274] |
Oh, I tried to speak |
| [01:12.398] |
I swear to God |
| [01:14.507] |
I wish I were your stray dog |
| [01:18.651] |
Eating scraps of meat you gave me |
| [01:22.350] |
because you saw my ribs and I was dirty |
| [01:26.823] |
|
| [01:35.469] |
Eating scraps of meat you gave me |
| [01:39.233] |
because you saw my ribs and I was dirty |
| [01:45.124] |
|
| [01:52.622] |
Oh, I wish I were your stray dog |
| [01:56.722] |
roaming aimlessly around the city |
| [02:04.054] |
|
