Well she’s halfway over this hard on son She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving And she’s quite sure she’s not the only one She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving Well there’s a quiver up her backbone, dogs in the dust She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving And she’ll take what she needs and she’ll do what she must She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving There’s a raw bone whisper underneath the cover Louder than a dead man’s drum There’s a joke that they told her when she got much older When she knew just what she’d become Oh let me tell ya that she’s… One part evil, three-fifths blind She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving And she’s oh so delicate and still don’t mind She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving Well there’s a chance that she knows where the bodies are kept She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving And she still don’t remember the tears that she wept She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving There’s a raw bone whisper underneath the cover Louder than a dead man’s drum There’s a joke that they told her when she got much older When she knew just what she’d become Oh let me tell ya now… Well she’s all too generous with my time She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving And she knows that injustice is no real crime She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving And I will always remember the way that she crawled She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving When I throw up in the rain she pretends she’s appalled She’s not gone yet but she’s leaving There’s a raw bone whisper underneath the cover Louder than a dead man’s drum There’s a joke that they told her when she got much older When she knew just what she’d become
Well just slow down come on Lupe Brown
Tell Desdemona that I'm ready to leave
Well she's nothing much to look at and she's hard to believe
Don't go down throw your arms around
Every little psycho that you happen to see
Well you meant everything to them
But you meant nothing to me
Well you're girlfriend made me itch
And though I'll keep you in mind I would be happy to switch
I don't know where you got that voice
I would sell you to London if you gave me the choice
Check those old clothes and those red bows
Though you're a scrawny pup I
Would be happy just to cheer you up, oh yes
Well just slow down come on Lupe Brown
Tell Desdemona that I'm ready to leave
Well she's nothing much to look at and she's hard to believe
Don't go down throw your arms around
Every little psycho that you happen to see
Well you meant everything to them
But you meant nothing to me
You got nothing I wish to steal
Cause I got nothing to give you on account of Lucille
She don't walk like a cripple should
Well she's Columbia's finest oh she's better than good
Wednesday's DJ's came in side ways
Yelling for the mother of the sister
And the brother of Orla the tease
Well just slow down come on Lupe Brown
Tell Desdemona that I'm ready to leave
Well she's nothing much to look at and she's hard to believe
Don't go down throw your arms around
Every little psycho that you happen to see
Well you meant everything to them
But you meant nothing to me
She said, "I know that there will come a time
When I get nothing from the blood and the wine"
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
You'll find me a silver chain
They'll deny me and whisper my name
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
I'll carry myself half way blind
Through each and every doorway I can find
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
I'm gonna lose my lonely mind for you
Well there's an answer if only I knew
It'll carry my heart home to you
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
I'm digging the dirt for a sign
And pray to let my little light shine
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
I'm going to lose my lonely mind for you
I'm going to lose my lonely mind for you
Tell one last beautiful lie for me
Make all your promises rhyme for me
Keep me in line but do it honestly
Make it real, make it slow, stay alive for me
Come on, babe where the line goes dead
I'll be fire, I'll be rain, I'll be joy, I'll be dread
Come on, baby don't be shy
All I want is you and I
Out on the street
I'll be every face
There'll be no man alive
That can take my place
Give it up, let it go
The sooner you do the sooner I'll go
I'm digging the dirt for a sign
And I'll pray to let my little light shine
And set my heart on the line
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
I'm gonna sell this soul of mine
I'm going to lose my lonely mind for you
I'm going to lose my lonely mind
I'm going to lose my lonely mind for you
I was lost like a love sick ghost Maybe for the very first time You were there where the truth gives way Not for the very last time In a daze from your seasick ways Nobody else could thrill me In your gaze, I was paralyzed Love in the very first degree In this showdown pain was sweet I took all I could take, shook all I could shake And your moves got strange in my defeat I was nothing less than torn, crying out to be reborn Come back, baby, you can make me happy Maybe you can prove me wrong? You’re the only one who could ever save me Maybe you could prove me wrong? I’ve been living in the dark down here too long I was born once again, my love In the midst of the rainstorm I would kiss your feet and praise your name If you sign my release form In this showdown, pain was sweet I took all I could take, shook all I could shake And your moves got strange in my defeat I was nothing less than torn, crying out to be reborn Come back, baby, you can make me happy Maybe you can prove me wrong? You’re the only one who could ever save me Maybe you could prove me wrong? I’ve been living in the dark down here too long And if you should lose your way I’ll be here waiting every day Wild, wild horses couldn’t keep me From your front door, oh, I swear Come back, baby, you can make me happy Maybe you can prove me wrong? You’re the only one who could ever save me Maybe you could prove me wrong? Come back, baby, you can make me happy Maybe you can prove me wrong? You’re the only one who could ever save me Maybe you could prove me wrong? I’ve been living in the dark down here Keeping my intentions clear Out of luck in the dark down here too long
Well let’s get one thing straight before I lose my place Oh baby, yes I love your conversation, not just your face You got my undivided sympathy and all of my time And though I promised you an answer Truth’s no real friend of mine I never did get the meaning of reality checks I dreamed my way out of the bedroom with no time to reflect Oh you could cut me and I wouldn’t bleed, I’m not even sure If you could say I was with you or call you mine anymore You always throw your hands up like some good little girl Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world There was a cold wear reality that you couldn’t take You never made a single friend or a dishonest mistake You were a Halloween denier of the second degree And that says more about your mother than it does about me ‘Cause I was always at your heels, I was there with a grin When you were crawling through the backstreets of the lies and the sin I was the poster boy for nothing and no sir candidate I would have swept you off your feet but I got lost in your gate You never trusted anything that staggered and swerved Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world You never had a reason, you were hopelessly lost You never kept the names of all the people you crossed You always had my sympathy whenever you died But all I could deliver was a headache to the bride You always throw your hands up like some good little girl Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world Come on baby, this is not the end of the world
