Graham Parker - Ok Heironymous lyrics
Your rating:
G C I break a heart in a thousand places, she makes a slur against other races G C D He rejects all of the unpretty faces, sticks them full of knives G C I take a shot at birds flying south, he takes the gun barrel into his mouth G C D She takes a rope and ties up the house, with the kids inside G C They just want to curl right up and die G Am D Them and us are only passing by G C D Em Hey Hieronymous I know where your garden grows F C D I know where your bloody roses bloom G C D Em Hey Hieronymous Tell me what delights there are F C D Right outside this window or inside this room G C Just taste the odor of burning skin, the pitchfork tongues and the rot within G C D The torture victim's wiped-out grin nothing can erase G C Somebody's pouring salt on a wound, scooping out monkey's brains with a spoon G C D Working on warfare up on the moon, that's the latest phase G C We just want to curl right up and die G Am D You and me are only passing by (CHORUS)(GUITAR SOLO) G C Germans and Turks and English nerks spew out of doorways going beserk G C D Inside of everyone someone lurks, they don't even know G Bring them all in, yeah, they're welcome here C You can't sell your work? then cut off your ear G C D Put it right on the table there, all tied up in bows (chorus) (repeat chorus) (outro same as verse)
