In this song, the character of Baron Saturday takes S.F. Sorrow on a journey. He shows him images of his life and other things, and asks him to throw his life away.
[Verse 1]
Oh! Baron Saturday
Sorrow, he'll show you games to play
He bends his mouth up to your ear
The words won't disappear
He'll take your eyes out for a ride
Through an eyeglass of tears it's not clear
[Verse 2]
Oh! Baron Saturday
White visions black, Mister Malady
'Neath a sky of milk you're drinking silk
You've lost the runcible spoon
On satin plates young maidens wait
To be devoured in the glare of the moon
[Chorus]
Baron Saturday
'Cept for Baron Saturday
'Cept for Baron Saturday
Your life was cool, good senses rule
Throw your life away
[Verse 3]
Baron Saturday
Let him steal your mind away
He'll show you the grave of someone who was saved
From living her life in a year
He'll show you the grave of someone who was saved
From taking his life with a knife
[Chorus]
Baron Saturday
'Cept for Baron Saturday
'Cept for Baron Saturday
Your life was cool, good senses rule
Throw your life away
[Instrumental]
[Chorus]
'Cept for Baron Saturday
'Cept for Baron Saturday
'Cept for Baron Saturday
Your life was cool, good senses rule
Throw your life away
'Cept for Baron Saturday
'Cept for Baron Saturday
'Cept for Baron Saturday
Your life was cool, good senses rule
Throw your life away, way....
