Deep on the banks of the Blood Tree
You strangle me so delicately
So delicately you strangle me
‘neath the boughs in the dim light
The moon comes out
And we start to fight
The moons shine so bright
Will we ever get through this life?
I don’t care about you
And whatever it is that you do:
Doing Drugs, popping pills
Shouting out your window at Girls;
You showed me pictures of
Your ex-girlfriend on the beach
Without her shirt on, and it made me sick
But I didn’t tell you it did
Hey baby with the wounded knee
You got caught up in cripple creek
Hanging out with the Jеsus Freaks
Let me show you what it mеans to me:
*Jump back/ *put it down/
*shake your leg/ *turn around/
Shake to that sound
Shake to that sound
I don’t care about you, and
Whatever you want me to do:
Wipe your nose, take out the trash
Give and give, and never ask
Go away, leave me alone
Go chew on your dog’s bone
The only boy I ever loved turned into a
Golden Dove
And moved to California
