lyrics

Drops of mercury on the Angels holy hearse,
Sallys in the kitchen
and she’s digging through her purse
some powder for her nose man,
some for her cheeks
everybody’s talking but nobody speaks
she’s a sequin, sparkles in the evening
leaves no trace like mist on Mr. Cohen…

a swiss wristwatch and switchblade in her bra-strap
nobody gonna talk, talk, talk,
talk to her like that
if you know what’s best you’ll be leavin’ on her goodside
if you know what’s best,
boy you best keep those shoes tied
she’s a sequin… sparkles in the evening
leaves no trace like mist on Mr. Cohen

deathly wit and an espionage kit
just like William S. Burroughs
she’s got candy in her pocket

she’ll tie you to the chair like some big bad prophet
picks up your pieces
and puts em in her pocket
when you think your wise she distributes the gossip
tells no no no no lies,
always got an alibi causes
she’s a sequin… sparkles in the evening
leaves no trace like mist on Mr. Cohen

down into the dungeon up into the heat
scoring some reds
for a man she’s yet to meet
snakes whisper poems that always start with S
end in Y and leave you second guessin
she’s a sequin… sparkles in the evening
leaves no trace like mist on Mr. Cohen

deathly wit and an espionage kit
reads William S. Burroughs
and actually likes it

Floating on the carpet of lyrics, rhythm and sound. Hunting pedal steel and a wonderful pure voice. Thank you Kiki! And thanks to Gill Landry, for mentioning your name. mariakeesstadlin
