BUTTHOLE SURFERS
[Verse 1]
Marky got with Sharon
And Sharon got Sherese
She was sharin’ Sharon's outlook on the topic of disease
Mikey had a facial scar and Bobby was a racist
They were all in love with dyin’, they were doin' it in Texas
Tommy played piano like a kid out in the rain
Then he lost his leg in Dallas he was dancing’ with a train
They were all in love with dyin’, they were drink in’ from a fountain
That was pouring like an avalanche, com in’ down the mountain
[Chorus]
I don’t mind the sun sometimes
The images it shows
I can taste you on my lips
And smell you in my clothes
Cinnamon and sugary
And softly spoken lies
You never know just how you look
Through other people’s eyes
[Bridge]
Some will die in hot pursuit and fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit while sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche, com in’ down the mountain
[Chorus]
I don’t mind the sun sometimes
The images it shows
I can taste you on my lips
And smell you in my clothes
Cinnamon and sugary
And softly spoken lies
You never know just how you look
Through other people’s eyes
In Reverse:
(I don’t mind the sun sometimes
The images it shows
You never know just how you look
Through other people’s eyes)
[Verse 2]
Another Mikey took a knife while arguing in traffic
Flipper died a natural death, he caught a nasty virus
Then there was an ever-present football player rapist
They were all in love with dyin’, they were doin' it in Texas
Pauly caught a bullet, but it only hit his leg
Well it should’ve been a better shot and got him in the head
They were all in love with dyin’, they were drink in’ from a fountain
That was pouring like an avalanche, com in’ down the mountain
[Chorus]
I don’t mind the sun sometimes
The images it shows
I can taste you on my lips
And smell you in my clothes
Cinnamon and sugary
And softly spoken lies
You never know just how you look
Through other people’s eyes
