lyrics

Lit up on Sunday
your letter came late
I'm a cold, cold lover
leave the light on

I whack the weeds
I rake the leaves
I rub the sleep out of my eyes
But I'm alive and well

Thanks for your concern
your empty words
of consolation undeserved
You lead me on, it keeps me going
though you tell me things I wouldn't want to know

You got the devil in your
your steady slender arms
the lights are beautiful
the people cheer you on
his gaze controls you in a silent
silent way

If you seek me out
in times of doubt and frustration
you wont have to cast your pretty pearls
before swine

Horrors loom
see you in your room with another (oh no!)
but all can be forgiven over time

My little zebra
there's a tiger on your six
oh, look at you red riding hood
the thought just makes me sick
I see it now
face pressed up against the window glass
every letter brings the fear that it's your last

You've been running away
I've been driving around
turn the radio on

In the distance I see
someone familiar to me
I turn my head and you're gone

You got the devil in your
your steady slender arms
the lights are beautiful
the people cheer you on
his gaze controls you in a silent
silent way

When the grass grows high
and the creek runs dry in the summer
you wont have to cast your pretty pearls
before swine

Horrors loom
see you in your room with another (oh no!)
but all can be forgiven over time
