Graham Parker - Ok Heironymous Lyrics
Pre>g cI break a heart in a thousand places, she makes a slur against other racesG c dHe rejects all of the unpretty faces, sticks them full of knivesG cI take a shot at birds flying south, he takes the gun barrel into his mouthG c dShe takes a rope and ties up the house, with the kids insideG cThey just want to curl right up and dieG am dThem and us are only passing byG c d emHey hieronymous I know where your garden growsF c dI know where your bloody roses bloomG c d emHey hieronymous tell me what delights there areF c dRight outside this window or inside this roomG cJust taste the odor of burning skin, the pitchfork tongues and the rot withinG c dThe torture victims wiped-out grin nothing can eraseG cSomebodys pouring salt on a wound, scooping out monkeys brains with a spoonG c dWorking on warfare up on the moon, thats the latest phaseG cWe just want to curl right up and dieG am dYou and me are only passing by (chorus)(guitar solo)G cGermans and turks and english nerks spew out of doorways going beserkG c dInside of everyone someone lurks, they dont even knowGBring them all in, yeah, theyre welcome hereCYou cant sell your work? then cut off your earG c dPut it right on the table there, all tied up in bows(chorus) (repeat chorus) (outro same as verse) /pre>
