Sloppy Jane - Peroxide Beach lyrics
[Sloppy Jane - Peroxide Beach lyrics]
Imagine waking up in your own body
Naked on a brown leather couch
The room is unfamiliar, and all of a sudden
You are 95 years old it's hot in the room
And the temperature increases
As it passes back and forth
Between your newly wrinkled skin
And the genuine leather of the couch
You cannot get up, where would you run to?
You don't even know where you are
Susan woke up every day wishing
She had bigger hands, she said
"Am I the perfect woman, am I an
Unfinished man?" she walked back home
She tried to grow her roots in sinking sand
She said, "he told me that he loves me
But he don't know who I am and I'm just
Hangin' out on peroxide Beach
So sour, don't got the power
Don't got the energy
So if you see the water start to get too deep
Just let me sleep just let me sleep
Just let me"
Hours have passed now or maybe they haven't
The sun exploded years ago so
It's impossible to know
You notice that you and the
Couch are not very different
And you start to feel sick
You know you'll be here forever
So is everything you've cared about
Before today rendered totally meaningless
Or is the weight of the world
Even greater with it's loss?
Speaking of weight
I ate way too much fucking salt today
Holy shit
"And when my body bloats and wrinkles and
My skin turns green and blue
I want the whole wide world to know I didn't
Like a single one of you except for
Overdose Elvis, 'cause when you're
When you're dead you're chillin'
And the King of the Jungle who's
About to leave the building and I'm just
Hangin' out on peroxide Beach
So sour don't got the power
Don't got the energy"
So when you see Susan caught up in the
Undertow just let it go just let it go
Just let it on the floor in front of you
There's a frozen metal spoon
You immediately pick it up and
Put it in your mouth
Hoping it'll help you cool off
Horrified, you feel the silver
Melt around your tongue
You try to remove it
But it stretches and stretches like
An infinite rope of taffy
Drenched and claustrophobic, you try to cry
But all your body's liquids have already
Poured out through your skin
You hear a voice ask
"Is she gonna be okay? Does she
Need to go to the hospital?"
"Yes! Help!" you attempt, but it's no use
The metal taffy has already hardened
Locking your jaw shut
They were never listening anyway
"She'll be fine" another voice replied
"Probably just sweating out the venom
Give her 'til Tuesday"
