20 years in the dakota:
she spent twenty years in the dakota
every single day it was black in the dakota
riot grrrls think you can stop me
and you're forever in her debt
well i know you haven't sent me
and you haven't sent her yet
she spent twenty years like a virus
they want to burn the witch who's inside us
well you, you don't fuck with the fabulous four
or you spend the rest of your life
picking things up off the floor
she's still alive but i am sure
that all the stars belong to her
on california king-sized beds
she's wrapped in rags inside my head
this is the story, this is the story of someone who's wild
big black rules, pearl, life
i don't remember, i forget
oh, baby dry your dirty eyes
my water breaks like turpentine
the pee girl burns to be a bride
your ever lovely suicide
are they coming for me
are they coming soon
hey jude, hey jude
are they coming for me
judy, judy
are they coming soon
i don't remember, i forget
the pee girl burns to be a bride
your ever lovely suicide
i don't remember, i forget
asking for it:
everytime that i sell myself to you
i feel a little bit cheaper than i need to
i will tear the petals off of you
rose-red, i will make you tell the truth
was she asking for it
was she asking nice?
yeah, she was asking for it
did she ask you twice
everytime that i stare into the sun
angel dust and my dress just comes undone
everytime that i stare into the sun
be a model or just look like one
well i'll rock it to the end
do you think you can make me do it again?
was she asking for it
was she asking nice
yeah, she was asking for it
did she ask you twice?
if you live through this with me, i swear that i will die for you
and if you live through this with me, i swear that i will die for you
was she asking for it
was she asking nice?
yeah, she was asking for it
did she ask you twice

boys on the radio:
do what you want
cause i'll do anything and
i'll take the blame
what's mine is yours
you can have all of it
and i'll learn to beg
oh the boys on the radio
they crash and burn
they fold and fade so slow
in your endless summer night
i'll be on the other side
when you're beautiful and dying
all the world that you've denied
when the water is too deep
you can close your eyes and really sleep
tonight, tonight
i want what's yours
oh i'd give anything and
i'll take the pain
i wait alone
for what will never come and
i throw it all away
oh the boys on the radio
they crash and burn
they fold and fade so slow
in your endless summer night
i'll be on the other side
when you're beautiful and dying
all the world that you've denied
when the water is too deep
you can close your eyes and really sleep
tonight
your beauty blinds
if i let you in, under my skin
and risen every angel slain
he said he'd never ever ever go
and heavens heavens heavens no and
never ever go away
baby i've gone away
in your endless summer night
i'll be on the other side
when you're beautiful and dying
all the world that you've denied
when the water is too deep
you can close your eyes and really sleep
tonight
your beauty blinds
i know what you are running to
please come back, oh, come back again
i hear the truth
it's coming from you
oh come back, won't come back again
in your endless summer night
i'll be on the other side
where the water is too deep
i will ease your suffering
when the glitter fades in morning
turn away and you will find my empty eyes
your beauty blinds
i know that you are rotten to the core
i know that you don't love me anymore
i know that you are rotten to the core
celebrity skin:
oh make me over

a walking study
in demonology

hey, so glad you could make it
yeah, now you really made it
hey, there's only us left now
when i wake up in my makeup
it's too early for that dress
wilted and faded somewhere in
hollywood
i'm glad i came here
with your pound of flesh
no second billing, cause you're a star now
oh cinderella

what you wish for
it better be worth it
so much to die for

she obliterated everything she kissed
now she's fading
somewhere in hollywood
i'm glad i came here
with your pound of flesh
you want a part of me
well, i'm not selling cheap
no, i'm not selling cheap
clouds:
bad boy
rows and flows of angel hair
and ice cream castles in the air
and feather canyons everywhere i've looked at clouds that way
moons and Junes and ferris wheels
the dizzy dancing way you feel it
when every fairy tale comes real
looked clouds that way
but now they only block the sun
they rain and snow on everyone so so many things
i could have done, but clouds got in my
oh angel dust gets in your eyes and hair on
acid stars you're getting there
my body's assembled into a little itty bitty gift to you
when you die i've looked at life that way
but now it's just another show
you leave 'em laughing when you go
don't let them inside
don't don't them them know
don't give yourself away
yeah now my friends are acting strange
they shake their heads man
they say i've changed well
well something's lost rearranged
from living every every every i've
now i've looked at clouds from both sides now
from up and down and still somehow
it's just illusions i recall
i really don't know, i really don't know
i really don't, i really don't clouds at all
why are we here terrified, terrified wow
