Neutral Milk Hotel - Song Against Sex Lyrics
And the first one tore a pictureof a dead and hanging manwho was kissing foreign fishesthat flew right out from his handsand when I put my arms around himfelt the blushing blood run through my cheeksand an eerieness surroundedwhen his tongue began to speakand he said, "oh, boy, you are so pretty,enough to wrap tight in rice-paper string"and when I finally kissed himthe whole world began to ringlost like a bell that's tipping overwith two cracks along both sidesand I knew the world was overso I took a look outsideand watched the fires that were reachingup to the weather vanes and the tops of treesand the waiting scene and the Sunday dreamthey're all waiting here for meDeli markets with their flower standsand pretty girls and the burning menhanging out on the hooksnext to window displaysand I took out my tonguetwice removed from my faceacross a bridge and across the mountainsthrew a nickel in the fountainto save my soul from all these troubled timesand all the drugs that I don't have the guts to taketo soothe my mind so I'm always soberalways aching, always heading towardsmass suicide, occult figurinesand wasted gas-station attendantsattending to their jobsand a nice drive in the countryfinds a nice cliff to drop offoh, when this life just gets so gratingall the grittiness of lifebut don't take those pills your boyfriend gave youyou're too wonderful to dieAnd the last one tore a picturefrom the pornographic pageand all the pleasure points attackingall the looks of love were stagedand it's a lie that you've been giventhat just hurts you every dayso why should I lie here *****when it's just too far awayfrom anything we could call lovingany love worth living forso I'll sleep out in the gutteryou can sleep here on the floorand when I wake up in the morningdon't forget to lock the door'cos with a match that's mean and some gasolineyou won't see me anymore
