Sticks And Stones Girl Lyrics

Here I am, hardly breathing in at all 

I cough when I can and that's about all 

I am this man and though I turn the tape 

To a happier song, my face can't find a smile 

because it's been looking too long 



You arrive like a locust swarn 

You devastated me and now when you leave the room 

My heart, head, hands and all forms 

go from red hot blood to bone dry and lukewarm 

You're the sticks and stones, girl 

You're the fire and flames 

I might be half-dead and half-born girl 

but whales start singing when I hear your name. 



I'm heaped with hate like acid rain, nothing can 

restrain the loathing and disgust I have and 

there is no one I distrust more than the happy 

whores who buy and trade, crawling on all fours 

backwards into holes and fires that wealth and 

self-congratulations made 



You're the sticks and stones, girl 

You're the fire and flames 

you're the punishment, the pleasure 

the employment and the leisure 

You're the sweet conversation and the cutting names 



Heart, head, hands and all forms 

went from red hot blood to bone dry and lukewarn 

Whales stopped singng and the ships were bringing in 

Toadstools and moss instead of sugarbeet and corn 

And all the girls in the world were distorted and deformed 

when the first leech was let loose 

and my jealousy was born. 



You're the sticks and stones girl 

You're the fire and flames
