Neko Case - The Pharaohs lyrics

rate me

<BR>

You were married in the mirrored hall when I was 16 <br>

You spoke the words, "I love girls in white leather jackets" <br>

That was good enough for love, it was good enough for me <br>

<br>

I listened in when you thought you were lost <br>

Caught in those fangs on a tornado sprawl <br>

<br>

Who knows what you know <br>

I only heard what I wanted <br>

You said I was your blue, blue baby <br>

And you were right <br>

You said I was your blue, blue baby <br>

And you were right <br>

<br>

Wondered the halls of the nighttime <br>

My body burned, my legs ached <br>

But you never came to bed <br>

You just left me there awake <br>

<br>

You kept me wanting wanting wanting <br>

Like the wanting in the movies and the hymns <br>

I want the pharaohs, but there's only men <br>

I want the pharaohs, but there's only men <br>

<br>

You said I was your new blue baby <br>

And you were right <br>

You said I was your new blue baby <br>

And you were right<br>

<BR><BR>

<BR>
