about

Originally recorded with Andrew Yeghiazarian for a Mother McKenzie album with the same name. This is a song I've performed with many different arrangements and the idea of revisiting a recording of the song seemed enticing to say the least.

lyrics

I came here on a rocket ship
I road the drugged out cloud
To find you knelt upon your leopard alter
Looking oh so proud
I rolled through hills of purple flowers
With the softest wind at my back
Baby rolling toward ocean sunsets
I found true love at last
I found true love at last

Oh to land here with these gritting teeth
And these sticky streams of sweat
Before the one I've always wanted babe
The one I've never met
I light my greasy hair on fire
I light my cigarette
And then I sit upon your velvet sofa
Waiting for what comes next
Waiting for what comes next

I hide my words in strange mazes
I tie my tongue in knots
I spit soda fountains across your cheeks
You seam to like me a lot
And then you tie my legs behind my head
Baby I'm your pretzel now
You tie a chained leash around my neck
And drag me all over town
Through places I've never seen

And I'm a little puppy dog
Or maybe a burning horse
I'm like a goldfish flopping around
Some public golf course
So feed me scraps of newspaper
Or feed me your Irish curse
and let the clock's hands move slowly babe
And let nature run its course
Let nature run its course
