Odalisque

Lyrics

[Verse 1] They've come to find you, Odalisque As the light dies horribly On a fire escape you walk All rare and resolved to drop [Verse 2] And when they find you, Odalisque They will rend you, terribly Stitch from stitch 'til all Your linen limbs will fall [Pre-Chorus] Lazy lady had a baby girl And a sweet sound it made Raised on praties, peanut shells and dirt In a railroad cul-de-sac [Chorus] And what do we do with ten baby shoes A kit bag full of marbles and a broken billiard cue? What do we do? What do we do? [Pre-Chorus] Fifteen stitches will mend those britches right And then rip them down again Sapling switches will rend those rags alright What a sweet sound it makes [Chorus] And what we do with ten dirty Jews A thirty-ought full of rock salt and a warm afternoon? What do we do? What do we do? [Bridge] Lay your belly under mine Naked under me, under me Such a filthy dimming shine The way you kick and scream, kick and scream [Chorus] And what do we with ten baby shoes A kit bag full of marbles and broken billiard cue? What do we do? What do we do? [Outro] Lazy lady had a baby girl And a sweet sound it made
