Lyrics The Ballad of Buffalo Bill - Brendan Kelly and the Wandering Birds

The Ballad of Buffalo Bill

Hey, baby, do you want to come out tonight?
Where did you rub the lotion on your skin?
I know it’s cold and the wall is weeping blood
But, do you really want the hose again?
You want to act like a big girl?
Well, nothing good can come from that
I want to watch the sunrise through your skin
And the handprints as they dance along your back
Cause I haven’t been sleeping since Sergio was here
I’ve been creeping through the shadows trying to disappear
I’ve been watching you twitching in your dreams
Baby, all that motion
It better be for me
Come on girl it’s already the morning
Now, move on me the way I tell you to
If you need to cry, baby girl, that’s fine
I can find the beauty in percipitous decline
We both want one thing
And I’ve got it in my pocket for you
Now, give me those eyes
And give me those lips
Let’s see what you can do
The time for you just fucking around is through
And the time for me just fucking around is too
Cause I haven’t been sleeping since Sergio was here
I’ve been creeping through the shadows trying to disappear
I’ve been watching you twitching in your dreams
Baby, all that motion
It better be for me
It had better be for me
It had better be for me (whoa)
