๐ Lyrics
Her words pour out as if her throat were a broken artery
And her mind were cut glass, carelessly handled
You imagine her in a huge velvet hat, with great dangling black feathers
But she shaves her head instead and goes for three day midnight walks
Sometimes she goes down to the dock and dances off the end of it
Simply to prove her belief that people who cannot walk on water are phoneys
Or dead
When she is cruel she is very very cruel
When she is kind she is lavish
Fisherman think perhaps she is a fish but they are all fools
She figured out that the only way to keep from being frozen was to stay in motion
And long ago converted most of her flesh to liquid
Now when she smells danger she spills herself all over like gasoline and lights it
She leaves the taste of salt and iron under your tounge but you don't mind
A common woman is as common as the reddest wine
And her mind were cut glass, carelessly handled
You imagine her in a huge velvet hat, with great dangling black feathers
But she shaves her head instead and goes for three day midnight walks
Sometimes she goes down to the dock and dances off the end of it
Simply to prove her belief that people who cannot walk on water are phoneys
Or dead
When she is cruel she is very very cruel
When she is kind she is lavish
Fisherman think perhaps she is a fish but they are all fools
She figured out that the only way to keep from being frozen was to stay in motion
And long ago converted most of her flesh to liquid
Now when she smells danger she spills herself all over like gasoline and lights it
She leaves the taste of salt and iron under your tounge but you don't mind
A common woman is as common as the reddest wine
