[Sneaker Pimps - Songs Of Imaginary Beings lyrics]
My mother said if she couldn't love
The physical way a woman should
Then where else could she could go
When the sisters and the fathers
Can't save her soul
Send them in, see them on
If she can't find a lover she'll fashion one
Imaginary man, like the burnt out poets
In the hinterland
The phoenix says the devil says
The serpent says the siren says
Why does it hurt when my heart misses a beat?
The Hourglass sees what shelf-life does
She asked exactly: "Tell me what is love?"
But breathing life alone
To where the priests and the prophets
And the saints not go?
Imagine hurt, imagine tears
She opened up until she disappeared
And vanished hand in hand
With all the long gone
Children dropped in Neverland
The phoenix says (Burn for me)
The devil says (Lie for me)
The serpent says (Beg for me)
The siren says (Die for me)
Why does it hurt when my heart misses a beat?
The phoenix says the devil says
The serpent says the siren says
The phoenix says (Burn for me)
The devil says (Lie for me)
The serpent says (Beg for me)
The siren says (Die for me)
The physical way a woman should
Then where else could she could go
When the sisters and the fathers
Can't save her soul
Send them in, see them on
If she can't find a lover she'll fashion one
Imaginary man, like the burnt out poets
In the hinterland
The phoenix says the devil says
The serpent says the siren says
Why does it hurt when my heart misses a beat?
The Hourglass sees what shelf-life does
She asked exactly: "Tell me what is love?"
But breathing life alone
To where the priests and the prophets
And the saints not go?
Imagine hurt, imagine tears
She opened up until she disappeared
And vanished hand in hand
With all the long gone
Children dropped in Neverland
The phoenix says (Burn for me)
The devil says (Lie for me)
The serpent says (Beg for me)
The siren says (Die for me)
Why does it hurt when my heart misses a beat?
The phoenix says the devil says
The serpent says the siren says
The phoenix says (Burn for me)
The devil says (Lie for me)
The serpent says (Beg for me)
The siren says (Die for me)
