People have been recently asking me to post these lyrics, so here goes. Enjoy.


BULLET ON A STRING


"You can help me,"
she said,
"Come and see what I've done
I've been running too long
From that
Sun
Dazed and amused;
(but) now I'm naked
And it's no fun
I've running too long
From that sun"

(I said):
"Do what you do
To mean what you say
'Cause no one,
There's someone
Listening..."

She bit straight through
The apple core;
Spit the seeds from her teeth
And said,
"Listen, boy, you've been bought and sold.
Why search for your silver
When I've got gold?"

And then I heard someone call my name
I'm like a bullet on a string

"You are a dreamer,"
She cried,
"At least you're still alive,
Can you join me
When the days
turn into the night time?
Now, come and see what I've done,
I've been running too long
From that sun."

(I said):
"Do what you do
To mean what you say
'Cause no one,
There's someone
Listening..."

The serpent licked the air and
Hissed,
"Never mind what you've been told.
Listen, boy, don't tell me no;
Why search for your silver
When I've got gold?"

And then I heard someone call my name
I'm like a bullet on a string

The serpent hissed, "Hold me, I am yours."
The serpent hissed, "Hold me, I am yours."
As I bit straight through that core.
The serpent hissed,

"Hold me, I am yours,

I am yours,
I am yours,

That's right!"
