lirik lagu o rose of may! – four point restraints
[verse 1]
strung-out and cold on the cross-town bus
my clothes still reek of you
the cheap perfume in the motel room
the burnt sulfur, and red columbines
you know i wear my catholic guilt like a hand-me-down quilt
that keeps me comfy, cozy, and warm
as the fires of h-ll, oh they surely will
when it is that my time has come
waiting to take a chance on secondhand romance
ready to take a chance, oh but you’re gone, long gone
[verse 2]
i remember it well, that roach motel
on the outskirts of this b-st-rd town
with the curtains drawn on a cold gray dawn
we drank pink champagne from paper cups
and then you left a lipstick-kiss on a napkin with
a phone number and a phony name
said, “it’s been a pleasure,” took the money on the dresser
and you walked on out that door
it’s then i saw the virgin mary in a water-stain buried
in the ceiling weeping gray-water tears
and made a full confession to my nickel 57
spun a bullet in the chamber and fired
waiting to take a chance on secondhand romance
russian roulette’s true test, oh but you’re gone, long gone
[verse 3]
when i saw you that day beneath the overp-ss, baby
on the arm of another man
i’ll admit i saw red, maybe lost my head
when i drew thunder from the clear blue sky
and left a bl–dy crater with the bullet from the chamber
of the gun that wouldn’t k!ll me
like a kiss from cupid’s arrow, then watched you spasm in the shadows
as the light left your upturned eyes
waiting to take a chance on secondhand romance
requiescat in pace ‘cause you’re gone, long gone
you’re gone, oh you’re gone, gone, you’re gone, and the rain’s gonna come
you’re gone…
