My New HAUNT |
| My New Haunt |
| Gives me everything I want |
| My New Haunt |
| Gives me everything I want |
| And I don’t mind, I don’t mind, I don’t mind |
| If she turns out to be crazy in time |
| Bring me black strap molasses |
| Light me a burning witch |
| Bring me my bristle brushes |
| Bring me my tar and pitch |
| Bring me my feather pillow |
| And I’ll unpick the stitch |
| We’ve lived too well |
| Too long |
| So long |
| So strong |
| My New Haunt |
| Brings me everything I want |
| And I don’t mind, I don’t mind, I don’t mind |
| If she turns out to be faithless in time |
| My New Haunt |
| Sometimes disappears |
| Then comes back in the night |
| And whispers in my ears |
| Saying «Don't you know you little fool |
| You’ve nothing to fear |
| I’ll tell you everything you want to know |
| Everything you want to hear» |
| And I don’t mind, I don’t mind, I don’t mind, I don’t mind |
| Raise up that flaming torch |
| Watch as the ships approach |
| An invitation on her lips |
| The homeless, tempest-tossed, she grips |
| Make her beautiful |
| Make her dutiful and rich |
| Sing me a love song |
| So long |
| So strong |
| My New Haunt |
| Has just been repossessed |
| And I don’t mind, I don’t mind, I don’t mind |
| If I have to guess my next address |
| I’m out on the horizon |
| Just as the sun was rising |
| First rays bestow a kiss |
| So you would never guess |
| I’m sailing off a precipice |
| Dragons and gold down in the hold |
| Burning leaves and spices choking back the stench of piss |
| My New Haunt |
| Requires a coat of paint |
| And I don’t mind, I don’t mind, I don’t mind |
| If the walls are peeling and the ceiling is revealing the stars out there |
| reeling |
| My New Haunt |
| Sometimes disappears |
| Comes back in the night |
| And whispers in my ears |
| Saying «Don't you know you little fool |
| You’ve nothing to fear |
| I’ll tell you everything you want to know |
| Everything you want to hear» |
| And I don’t mind, I don’t mind, I don’t mind, I don’t mind |
| At the end of the working day |
| He’s tired of kneeling, and praying |
| «As I lay down to die» |
| I can’t remember why |
| Up on the silent screen |
| A cowboy ropes a trick |
| And in the second feature |
| Some lovely creature saved by a Yankee dick |
| Make her beautiful |
| Make her dutiful and rich |
| Sing me a love song |
| So long |
| So strong |
| My New Haunt |
| The shiver of a chill |
| And I don’t mind, I don’t mind, I don’t mind |
| Start making babies |
| Beat out those bayonets |
| Stop making bullets |
| Reverse the planets |
| Pick all my pockets |
| Cut off those bracelets |
| Have you no remorse? |
| Peel off your corsets |
| Of course |
