[Jam Baxter - Red Wine Lips lyrics]
Yeah, I hate to break it to you
But, you're a plastic ballerina
In a paper tutu
A skull plucked from a conveyor belt
Of doll's heads
Glued onto a body and screwed
Onto some false legs
So when that buck-toothed two year
Old lifts the lid
You better dance like a spinning pig
Apple in his mouth on a spit
In the wild west crackling softly
With two forks in his pink skin just
Like blades in a bleeding zombie
Here's a heads-up
Your room full of rotisserie chicken
Eaten shred by shred by a
Team of mystery women
Sat in the afterlife reading my obituary
Grinning he blew himself to bit's and took
The entire industry with him, sorry
I hate to be the bearer of bad news
But it would seem you're all just
Toddlers wearing your dad's shoes
You stared in disbelief at his cavernous size
Twelves like it had just hit him
Never stare at a man's hooves it's unhealthy
You waited out the night, the earth quakes
Sat sewing sequins on the skin
Of your preferred face
Shit was all cool until a
Party of concerned snakes
Tunnelled through your eye sockets searching
For your worst trait's
I slithered in on some "hey sarge
I think we found him"
Every word he said was like
A ninety minute indie album
Screeching through the tannoy with the
Volume stuck on fifty thousand
Pull the plug and switch 'em off
Switch 'em off
Switch 'em off
Switch 'em off
The chicks took sly digs at his red wine lips
And murmured 'bout the insects that
Hide under his eyelids
The ones he did lines with
Maintaining is heavenly despite the
Devil gently slapping
His face on every night shift
I pushed the tiny button on his chin
His face swang open to reveal
The demons rummaging within
I assume the undercovers and
The bleeding ex-lovers
Simply never bothered reading the
Instructions on his skin
I'm gone, the sun clambered up as we left
Draped in our gruesome sins
Feeling comfortably dressed
All the creatures from the past who're
All just drunkenly swept under
The rug'll flicker back to life
And come for me next
That's cruel
Just gimme a desert plain to stare across
And let my body slowly disappear
Beneath a layer of moss
And if you're gonna tell us we ain't gods
And we ain't solid gold then please
Provide a perforated tongue so we
Can tear 'em off
Tear 'em off
But, you're a plastic ballerina
In a paper tutu
A skull plucked from a conveyor belt
Of doll's heads
Glued onto a body and screwed
Onto some false legs
So when that buck-toothed two year
Old lifts the lid
You better dance like a spinning pig
Apple in his mouth on a spit
In the wild west crackling softly
With two forks in his pink skin just
Like blades in a bleeding zombie
Here's a heads-up
Your room full of rotisserie chicken
Eaten shred by shred by a
