The Impending Doom of Mayo Methot Lyrics

[Chorus: Bender]
Getting friendly with the source of your fall
One bottle four horrible walls, Bogey ignoring your calls
Claw hammer to a porcelain doll
Throwing darts at a photograph of Lauren Bacall

[Verse 1: Bender]
Her mother gave her the name of Mayo Methot
Goddess in silver halide, face of the great depression
Legend, got her early movie roles at Warner Studios
Minor parts at first but made impressions they remembered
5'2", a spark plug, drinking with the rummies
Starting brawls in nightclubs, she got the nickname Sluggy
World within an arm's reach, she'd get it in a heartbeat
Rising star Mayo getting bigger on the marquee
Married Humphrey Bogart in 1938
Fireworks at first, it's like her nights were turned to day
But now the honeymoon was short-lived, the fire burned away
And when that fire burned to smoke and ash that sky had turned to
Grappling with jealousy, got violent when the talks failed
She stabbed Bogey in the shoulder at a party over cocktails
A madness to Miss Methot more than roughhoused with her man
She black out while he was wrestling the gun out of her hand
Constant fighting they would never clear the rumours
And when he left her for an actress who was twenty years her junior
Sluggy cracked a crystal ball in the attempt to see her future
Then she hit the bottle making sure she'd get to see it sooner
Aging actress in a slump of unemployment
Stumbling down Sunset Boulevard, amongst the muddled voices
She knows that dagger's dangling overhead but just avoids it
Now the only answer that she got's the one for 'what's your poison?'

[Chorus: Bender]
Getting friendly with the source of your fall
One bottle four horrible walls, Bogey ignoring your calls
Claw hammer to a porcelain doll
Throwing darts at a photograph of Lauren Bacall
Getting friendly with the source of your fall
One bottle four horrible walls, Bogey ignoring your calls
Claw hammer to a porcelain doll
Throwing darts at a photograph of Lauren Bacall

[Verse 2: Bender]
Talent was infallible but now it seemed she bound to fall
Clouded while she drowning in the valium and the alcohol
Crouching in her shower stall, spouting bloody murder
While she slumped against the outer wall, now she tumbled further
Down the spiral she was caught in, smeared her lipstick in a scarlet mess
Seeing what she needed fleeting farther than her arms could stretch
Architecture of her frame depleted while she starving
Pinned beneath those inner demons, a martyred starfish in a party dress
Hardly kept her wits about, went from bad to vulgar
Weepy starlet on a reddened carpet bleeding from the ulcers
That had burrowed in, burning in the brimstone and the sulfur
Window painted black she dancing in the shadow of the vulture
Was it all for nothing? Sluggy loved her Bogey one and only
But that sun was slowly setting in the dust the dusk was lonely
It's enough to crush a woman underneath the weight attached to it
Found her in a Portland motel, claimed as an accident
Where do you go now that gravity's gone? Is your love about to answer that call?
Where you going now that gravity's gone? Feel the weight of all this matter dissolve
Where do you go now that gravity's gone? I gotta feelin it don't matter at all
I'll drink to life while I sit and drink to death in this city 'til the gravity's gone, the gravity's gone

[Chorus: Bender]
Getting friendly with the source of your fall
One bottle four horrible walls, Bogey ignoring your calls
Claw hammer to a porcelain doll
Throwing darts at a photograph of Lauren Bacall
Getting friendly with the source of your fall
One bottle four horrible walls, Bogey ignoring your calls
Claw hammer to a porcelain doll
Throwing darts at a photograph
