Overripe underage spin me a whirl

You with your face like a lemon in pain

Moon is a coin to be spent on a girl

Come to inebriate out of the rain



Days i have violinned tragic and crass

Weepingly bowing the people i'd meet

But now all the music is here in my glass

Three sips from the bottom one drink from the street



One drink from the hole

Three sips from my fill

Tonight i will roll

Down the dandelion hills

Dandelion hills



Blackberry patch stripteasing its leaves

You are naked and trembling and quiet and blue

You are a rock in my rocketing shoes

And i go where i choose and you do what you do

And sleepers in bundles they all look like lambs

The more that are slaughtered the fewer complain

Larry-lon-lie i'm a rag on the road

It's kindly to tarry here out of the rain



One drink from the hole

Three sips from my fill

Tonight i will roll

Down the dandelion hills

Dandelion hills



That one's a tearful and this one's a whore

Then there are spirits and then there is you

Here take my hand in your quietly mad

Quitting time's cruel but what can you do?



One drink from the hole

Three sips from my fill

Tonight i will roll

Down the dandelion hills

Dandelion hills
