Lyrics I Am Ma Shih Ying - Stephin Merritt

I Am Ma Shih Ying

I am Ma Shih Ying
The heroic cavalier
And I’ll do anything
To protect my sphere
But that’s neither here nor there
For spring is in the air!
There are insects everywhere
In my garden
And though my heart is made of steel
In early spring I begin to feel
My hard heart harden
And I dance, dance, dance
When my scorpion stings
And I burn, burn, burn
Off my butterflies' wings
Because I’m Ma Shih Ying
The heroic cavalier
