Regina Spektor - BYOS lyrics

I met Mata Hari she was in no hurry
The firing squad had their guns in the air

My invitation said "Bring your own shovel"
I brought my own shovel b y o s
Bring your own shovel and shovel up the mess

Oh, lately all my friends clip
Their teeth with nail clippers
They want them much straighter
Much nicer, more even
Well I thought I'd do something nasty as well
I brought my own shovel
Dug up this here well
Then I shuffled my feet and
I sniffed at the smells
Then I dropped in some horses
And dropped in some sheep
Then I cuddled up a grandma put
Her in there to sleep
Then I licked up the envelope in it I sent
All the bones and the phones
And the braids from my head

Oh, oh, and darling I'm all shook up now
Oh, oh, baby I'm all shook up now
Oh, oh, darling I'm all shook up

Bring your own shovel bring your own shovel
Bring your own shovel b y o s

Bring your own shovel bring your own shovel
Bring your own shovel b y o s
B y o s b y o s
B y o - b y o -
B y o s
