Lyrics

Lollipops and Suicides

You take pennies for lovers
And spread panic across the night
No matter how we try.
I'll take panties for clover
And spread jealousy far and wide
With my stomach wrapped in twine.

For shame and panicking
My heart needs a medic
My first class suicide
The mortician's petrified.
My faith's crumbling,
My heart feels pathetic.
It's a first class suicide.
Please tell my mother I tried.

Go Sally, descend on the underworld
To steal seconds with your love.
How sadly you censor your happiness,
You could be singing in the sun.

You beg the angels to suffer
And pray the moment will pass you by
With your hands clasping mine
They've gone to summon the piper
And stop a moment to ask him why
There are no chemicals in sight.

For shame and panicking
My heart needs a medic
My first class suicide
The mortician's petrified.
My faith's crumbling,
My heart feels pathetic.
It's a first class suicide.
Please tell my mother I tried.

Go Sally, descend on the underworld
To steal seconds with your love.
How sadly you censor your happiness,
You could be singing in the sun.

Plant seeds of happiness
And grant me their nourishment
And let the weeds accomplish their fun.

It's so special how we live and die
And dreams shatter.
And how clever to fill our space and time
With dark matter.
It's so special how we're terrified
Of the summertime.

Go Sally, descend on the underworld
To steal seconds with your love.
How sadly you censor your happiness,
You could be singing in the sun.
They talk madly of sin. How they condescend.
They're so jealous of her love.
And how sadly they censor their happiness,
They could be singing in the sun.

Plant seeds of happiness
And grant me their nourishment
And let the weeds accomplish their fun.
