Tori Amos - Talula lyrics

Congratulate you
Said you had a double tongue
Balancing cake and bread
Say goodbye to a glitter girl

Talula, Talula, you don’t want to lose her
She must be worth losing if
It is worth something
Talula, Talula, she’s brand new now to you
Sugar, sweet love wrapped in your papoose
Your little Fig Newton softly

Say goodbye now my baby, gotta go
Say goodbye my baby to the Old World

Ran into the Henchman that
Severed Anne Boleyn
He did it right quickly, a merciful man
She said, "One plus one is two
Maybe I’m a happy man, maybe I’m a honeydew
But Henry said that it was three"
Maybe it’s a bad job so it was, here I am
Maybe it’s a what you are

Talula, Talula, I don’t want to lose it
It must be worth losing if
It is worth something
Talula, Talula, she’s brand new now to you
Listen, baby wrapped in your papoose
Your little Fig Newton supper's chilling

And Jamaica
Do you know, do you know what I have done?
Mary M weaving on
Said, "What you want is in the blood
Senators" said, "What you want is
In the blood, Senators, yes"

I got Big Bird on the fishing line
With a bit of a shout, a bit of shout
A bit of an angry snout
He’s my favourite hooker of the whole bunch
And I know about his only Bride
And how the Russians die on the ice
I got my rape hat on
Honey, but I always could accessorise
And I never cared too much for the money
But, I know right now, honey
That it’s in God’s hands, oh
But, I don’t know who the Father is

Talula, Talula, I don’t want to lose him
He must be worth losing if
It is worth something
Talula, Talula, he’s brand new now to you
Listen, baby wrapped in your papoose
Your little Fig Newton
Supper's chilling, supper's chilling
Your little Fig Newton
Your little Fig Newton
