Tie and Die
what do you think
dark star meant?
that i was supposed to suck
all you were givin’
through a black thread you found
hanging from your sisters gown?
Sarah looked at Jenny
and through the mirrors call
declared that she was indeed
the ruler of the ball
what do you think
dark star meant?
i never saw anything as ugly
as a tie-dyed shirt
i never saw anything as ugly
as my old man’s skirt
what do you think
dark star meant?
Yeah what sort of thing -
Could feed a dark stars head?
A black hole is the only
place an angel won’t tread
because a smarty angel
knows --- knows -- to offer
what do you think
dark star meant?
satellite of love
it’s a comin’ in the morn
satellite of love
it’s a comin’ in the morn
there’s a baby crying
it’s most upset
that baby’s got a hunger
that never is fed
dark star is a grabbin’
for anything that will fall
dark star is attractin’
any that will crawl
no you won’t go in that channel
no you won’t make that call
when particles employ
distractions for an angels joy
someone’s takin’ a hit
the comedian takes a fall
a clown spreads the white grease paint
for a dark stars call
when you hear a cry
from safe in your bed
when you hear a cry
and you turn away instead
don’t turn away
don’t turn away and sleep
listen to the cry
from a dark star to you
momma don’t wear no tie dye
she’s gonna knot the moon
momma don’t wear no tie and dye
she’s gonna knot the moon
tie and die
sounds easy to me
die and die
sleepy
what do you think
dark star meant?
Yeah what sort of thing -
Could feed a dark stars head?
ignorance is still
a flame from the still
ignorance is still
a slower form of violence
your dreams reveal
what lies you said
and in those dreams
a black hole is fed
when the lies are against the young
blue star creeper
at the edge of a black flies tongue
blue star creeper
before and after the slavers come
blue angel fire
blue angel fire
blue angel fire
