[length: 05:20]
[00:17.21]I lit a thin green candle
[00:21.22]To make you jealous of me
[00:26.30]But the room just filled with mosquitos
[00:32.23]They heard that my body was free
[00:37.46]Then I took the dust from a long sleepless night
[00:43.50]And I put it in your little shoe
[00:47.52]Then I confess that I tortured the dress
[00:52.62]That you wore for the world to see through.
[01:04.75]I showed my heart to the doctor
[01:09.72]He said I’d just have to quit
[01:14.86]Then he wrote himself a prescription
[01:19.80]And your name was mentioned in it
[01:24.99]Then he locked himself in a library shelf
[01:29.95]With the details of our honeymoon
[01:36.08]And I hear from the nurse that he’s gotten much worse
[01:41.09]And his practice is all in a ruin.
[01:52.15]I heard of a saint who had loved you
[01:57.24]So I studied all night in his school
[02:02.24]He taught us the duty of lovers
[02:08.34]Was to tarnish the golden rule
[02:12.45]And just when I was sure that his teachings were pure
[02:18.48]He drowned himself in a pool
[02:23.54]His body is gone but back here on the lawn
[02:28.51]His spirit continues to drool
[02:34.40]
[03:28.07]An eskimo showed me a movie
[03:34.02]He’d recently taken of you
[03:39.12]The poor man could hardly stop shivering
[03:44.24]His lips and his fingers were blue
[03:49.26]I suppose that he froze when the wind took your clothes
[03:54.37]And I guess he just never got warm
[04:00.39]But you stand there so nice in your blizzard of ice
[04:05.48]O please let me come into the storm
[04:37.33]I suppose that he froze when the wind took your clothes
[04:43.02]And I guess he just never got warm
[04:48.48]But you stand there so nice in your blizzard of ice
[04:52.98]O please let me, let me come into, come into the storm
