Sugar Tongue |
| All the fur and fin will lose again |
| Cause our better is their worst reckonin' |
| And our fine-feathered friends will sing until they bleed |
| And how will we replace that symphony? |
| I’ve got the blackest boots, the whitest skin |
| Satisfy my sugar tongue again |
| Bring me love that buys us shoe-shine days |
| Guilded verses for your ethylene |
| And sing it to me free and clean |
| All the kids come home with foreign limbs |
| From hunting trips abroad they lose again |
| And we’ll teach them how to talk |
| And whistle while they walk |
| And do the dirty work of battle hymns |
| I’ve got the blackest boots, the whitest skin |
| Satisfy my sugar tongue again |
| Sing me love that buys us shoe-shine days |
| Guilded verses for your ethylene |
| And sing it to me free and clean |
| Drinking tea with milk and Janjaweed |
| Pontificate on genocide or greed |
| With a spoonful of descent |
| For the orchestra of need |
| Is just enough to please this colony |
| I’ve got the blackest boots, the whitest skin |
| Satisfy my sugar tongue again |
| Bring me lullabies and morphine-dreams |
| Belladonna with her atropine |
| And sing it to me free and clean |
