lyrics

Baby I'm the sun when you're lying in the dirt
I could be your maggots and your worms
while the west declines, I dine and dash
no friend of mine, let em crash
let em all starve incessant, pray to reason and choke
never ever met a german who, could understand a joke
no, just like her empty head, sunny side up fried eggs
an all she got for her troubles; was cigarettes and ricin
I like it, you're an open window
and you don't even care who sees thru, you don't even close the curtain it's
so generous, you share what's mine like it's yours to give
nothing that you wouldnt do to prove you're clean of sin
she cares so much her heart's so big, mad sincere, what a fuckin saint
she always turns the other cheek, it's just like a jew to shank
she care so much her heart's so big, fuckin saint
same old engine, different coat of paint

yeah, wise up and get lost,
I don't wanna hang around I don't wanna talk babe
six horses, one box
how you gonna dance puppet when I cut you off


slim and hard like arrows, mechanical life syntax
so fugazi, hedonistic princess
always at the parties
I can be your car crash in the four way
I can be the stranger in your doorway
all in different angles, contorted
your fancy car I could not afford
silver spoons glass tables , I seen it before

I don't like your language babe I don't like your scriptures
your chthonic peasant face on christmas
I don't like when you rewrite the past then ask for forgiveness
maybe he would be your friend but me i'm so dismissive
to lay with a beast a shande, bitch lookin just like her father
same ones in brooklyn buying condos, I don't talk to em
socks and sandals, pictures with a camel, you're so ugly
and tryna have the world to yourself , so prussian
like a landlord, all these things I ain't ask for
swear you say you'll transform, you're past war, yeah yeah
like honest, you ain't lit by a comet
you ain't coming to my concert, yeah, you're awful
everything you get from me, extra cheap, plague and pestilence
and a piece of history, and a testament
everything you get from me, plague and pestilence
like i'm laughing when death descend on dresden
