lyrics
Yellow #5
She came to me I was broken down, choppin' trees down with a scowl
Pouring hydrochloric acid all over the ground
I only eat raw meat I said, she fed me lettuce beans and bread
She knocked me right up side my head, till I was falling down
She said you must not eat the beasts, our stomachs wont digest their meat
Besides don't they look kind of neat just wandering around?
She's lifting up the wasps and bees, her little fingers like a breeze
The trees are singing happily, now they have their queen
Don‘t you ever go, and leave me here alone, don‘t you ever go
My Eastern European Queen, I beg you now that I may be,
Beside your side eternally, wherever we may go
Tiannamean, Brazil, Berlin, Pittsburg, City Ho Chi Minh
Through all the oceans we will swim, and never touch the ground
Don‘t you ever go, and leave me here alone, don‘t you ever go
She's jumpin on a trampoline, her skin is gold, and warm, and clean
No collagen, or thorazine, or yellow number five
Ah, Petra are you posionous, I asked her as I kissed her lips
We walked along the frozen cliffs for ever in the sun
Don‘t you ever go, and leave me here alone, don‘t you ever go
And if I had a million lives, I'd spend them all right by your side
We'd watch the sun and moon and tides, eternally arrive
