Jack White - That Black Bat Licorice lyrics
Your rating:
What? Behave yourself Behave yourself You need to behave yourself, boy Yeah, she's built for speed like a black castrum doloris Good for the needy, like Nietzsche, Freud and Horace But I'm skin, flint, broke, making no money, making jokes But baby, I won't joke with you My feet are burning like a Roman hypocaust But the Romans are gone, they changed their name because they lost She writes letters like a Jack Chick comic Just a bunch of propaganda, make my fingers histrionic; like this, and this I mean, she's my baby But she makes me get avuncular And when my monkey is jumping I got no time for making up for her I fantasize about the hospital The army, asylum, confinement, in prison Any place where there's a time to clear my vision I spit it out Whatever's in my mouth Just like that Black Bat Licorice Yeah, that Black Bat Licorice That Black Bat Licorice That Black Bat Licorice Yeah I wanna cut out my tongue and let you hold onto it for me Cause without my skull to amplify my sounds it might get boring I've got the wit of the stickers with atomic clock precision And the phases of the moon directing all of my decisions like this Women need to know, I play dumb like Columbo And get my feelings hurt and move to NY like I'm Dumbo Don't you want to lose the part of the brain that has opinions? To not even know what you are doing, or care about yourself or your species in the billions Yeah, I have to spit it out Oh, whatever's in my mouth I have to spit it out (behave your self) Just like that Black Bat Licorice That Black Bat Licorice That Black Bat Licorice, I never liked it, I never will Now state the same damn thing with the violin Whatever you feed me I feed you right back But it will do no good
