Residents - Lillie lyrics
rate meI saw a woman chewing with nothing in her mouth;<br />
Her teeth were in her hands and her tongue was hanging out;<br />
The she started drooling and caught it in a cup,<br />
The cup was full of pennies; it spilled when she got up.<br />
Some guy is in the shadows grabbing empty air;<br />
He could be catching butterflies if there were any there.<br />
All the freaks are not inside the tents<br />
Some pay to come and be in the audience.<br />
I saw a great big guy who had a little gun;<br />
He pulled it out and smiled and then he sucked his thumb<br />
His wife was standing by with a leather leash<br />
Fastened to a child who cried beside their feet.<br />
The scary one is back with clothes so white and clean;<br />
And her face that's coated with a quarter inch of cream-cold cream<br />
She's the one who freaks the freaks out<br />
Lillie little Lillie, Lillie little Lillie, Lillie chilling Lillie<br />
Lillie with her white face.<br />
Delicate Lillie is stainlessly lonely and<br />
She is too white<br />
Like a face in a flashlight with teeth that might bite<br />
She is too white<br />
Like dice rolling snakeeyes in headlights at night<br />
She is too white<br />
Like a corpse in the sunshine or eyes in a fight<br />
There's a spot a spot on my glove on my glove I know, no no maybe it<br />
Was make em runny make em runny honey... doilies doilies where have all<br />
The doilies gone...<br />
Roses will whither and die<br />
Along with the lace and the lies<br />
Nothing is nicer than death<br />
At matching the bad and the best<br />
Heh heh... he hated me he hated me and hate is white and hate is hot<br />
But I'll not even have disdain for him not even a stain on a memory<br />
Looked up to, lacking all respect for him I'm blacking out the specks<br />
Of decent thoughts that linger in me and leave only white white<br />
Peaceful white calm white swans silently flying in the snow look down<br />
And see the bleached bones of a noble knight who died trying to save<br />
His lady his lovely white lady who brought her man milk in the<br />
Moonlight but it was too late too late too late he said<br />
Scratch out all the pin holes<br />
Open up the sores<br />
Don't look out the window<br />
White hatred's at the door.<br />
And he tried to make me dirty make me dirty make me dirty.<br />
Touch her someone<br />
Touch her someone<br />
Reach out to her<br />
Touch her soiled soul.
