Butter beans, I’m gonna get you I’m gonna stick you I’m gonna take you down And then romp; I’m goin' to hell, you're riding shot gun
(Butter beans, I’m gonna get you, I’m gonna get you, I’m gonna get you)
Butter beans, I know she wants you That you’ll make a lovely headdress or A double breasted suit of skin
(Butter beans, I’m gonna get you, I’m gonna get you, I’m gonna get you)
Cause Butter beans, you better stay sharp Cause I’m gonna freeze out life blood from that black heart I’m gonna fry I’m gonna fry with a smile on my face
(Butter beans, I’m gonna get you, I’m gonna get you, I’m gonna get you)
You think you’re so slick I seen her lipstick 'cross your dillsnick You think you’re so slick I seen a lipstick cross you're dillsnick
Butter beans, you go and try and hide In the swamp grass I got swamp eyes And I’ll track you down like a bloodhound It’s your time to die
(Butter beans I’m gonna get you, I’m gonna get you, I’m gonna get you)
Butter beans, you’ve gotten so fat I can barely carry your weight across my tiny back Taught me singing and aim and I'll sin when you say my name
(Butter beans, I’m gonna get you, I’m gonna get you, I’m gonna get you)
Real thick black magic can't stop the tragedy From happening Pig’s feet and snake piss Crow tongue and cat face Horse tail and bone bits Bird’s nest and grave dust
All of it won’t keep the tragedy from happening So run
I wanna hold you Till the mountains turn into sand Oh my God! What happened to all those days Before we were bruised Before we were cut loose To drown in your wake
I can't breathe underwater Like I used to 'Fore I met you
I, just can't remember January, straight through December My collective memories are in shambles And so are my scruples I'm outside your window Throwin' bricks at the moon
I can't breathe underwater Like I used to 'Fore I met you
Why can?t anything be easy? Why do I always dream With teeth falling all over the street?
You get the girl. You lose the girl. The girl walks back, But you already moved on. You take her in. She changes her mind. You lose the girl, And You?ve lost out twice, so.
Why can?t anything be easy? Why can?t everything be easy? You wanted out, but you get pulled Right the fuck back in!
Guess who?
Why can?t anything be easy? Why do you fantasize and destruct the darkness? You pawned a life. You had to try. Your Belly was split. Love slipped in and Off with your head. Fell off fast. Fell off hard. You want to get back But the backs moved on, so.
Why can?t anything be easy? Why can?t everything be easy? You wanted out, but you get pulled Right the fuck back!
Ain?t got no body Ain?t got nobody to blame Ain?t got no body Ain?t got nobody to blame Ain?t got no body Ain?t got nobody to blame

Don't you dare say that you weren't warned That the end was coming soon And your eyes shined like Oppenheimer As he talks about the moon
And he don't even taste the food he eats anymore And there's a space in place of where his heart was before And he don't even taste the food he eats anymore And she don't wanna dine alone And he don't wanna die alone And she wants to live to eat
Don't you dare say that you weren't warned That the end was coming soon And your eyes shined Enola Gay-like As you see the light of day
And he don't even taste the food he eats anymore And there's a space in place of where his heart was before And he don't even taste the food he eats anymore And he don't wanna dine alone And she don't wanna die alone And he wants to eat to live
You're an elegant little pelican And all your sorrows are stacked Amongst your nest of friends
And over time, defined by how you carry on And all of the torch songs you keep inside And all of the songs that hang in the night Even after you're gone
Jackie hits the streets She swears that all she sees Is the hunger in their eyes And the desperation in their speech
Jackie hunts the shadows With a bowie knife at her elbows Cuts free those horrible drums That beat like bats Under their sternums She wears their fear around her neck
(I heard it all) (From shady streets) (She travels light) (On angel feet) (Best watch your back, if I were you) (Her body's warm) (And that's her cue)
Jackie's still on the loose As the detectives gathered clues So she tattoos a mustache above her lip Shaves her head Curses God for those hips, That sway when the beat plays, Can't give away she ain't no man
And I dont see what everybody Sees in your sexy body All I see Is a shallow grave Trapped inside a pretty face
Rescue me Is written on your bed Home is where the bullet lands As it travels through your head And I believe That all I need to set me free Is for someone someday somewhere to murder me
And I dont see what everybody Sees in your sexy body All I see Is a shallow grave Trapped inside a pretty face
And I walk the same cold streets Overhear the same heartbeats And I tune my drum just right So you can come set it off in the night And I want to be impressed by you And see our violent paths collide I want to crawl in your autumn mouth And feel the crows pick me apart inside And everything that they said is true Im on a downward spiral towards you And I'll fight through the positive steps as I hurl towards my final descent And I need to get back to you And lay this heavy head in your lap Cause these days nothing makes more sense Than the dance towards the inevitable end And I'm wearing virginal white for you Don't you see So please come with your sharpened knives And murder me And I'm wearing virginal white for you Dont you see So please come with your sharpened knives And murder me Cause I'm wearing virginal white for you Don't you see And my eyes are more open now Than they'll ever be

He felt her curves surrounding his neck Like a yoke He knows He'll never forget The way she cut through his bed Like a snake would bite through a cave of flesh But he holds her Though she's broken He swears he don't care where she's been
He's tired of being human He wears her close to the bone as though she were his own skin
He shoots from the heart instead of the head His mouth and his words they rarely connect He looks to the past and where his tongue's tread And he knows he meant the opposite
But she holds him Like an infant Though it breaks her in half to know he'll wake like a man Sold on cold indifference When he reaches for her she's gone She slips like the wind through blackened sails, but
Who are we to love at all?
And I hope you don't mind If I hang all of my hopes I hang all my hopes on this time Although I've been warned I'll probably get burned I'd rather get burned than to not try
I hope you don't mind If I hang all of my hopes I hang all of my hopes on this time 'Cause you won't Let it go
