Derrick Brown - Kurosawa Champagne lyrics
Come on love You'd sleep much better If you'd just open my letter When you read slight of hand in your sweater Pretend I'm there Tonight your body shook, hurling your nightmares back to Cambodia and your nightgown whisped off into Ursula Minor and I was left here on earth feeling alone, paranoid about the rapture. Tonight, I think it's safe to say we drank way too much. Should I apologize for the volume in my slobber? Must I apologize for the best dance moves ever? No. I wont. Booze is my tuition to clown college. And that night we swerved home on black laughter Leading from forgetable boxing. I asked you to sleep in the shape of a trench so that I may know shelter. I drew the word surrender in the midst of your breath Waving a white sheet around your body I said dear, "In the morning, let me put on your makeup for you. Loading your gems with mascara, and then I'll tell you the truth" I watched black ropes of tears ramble down your face. Lady war paint. A squad of tiny men propelled down the snaking lines And you said: "Oh, thank you for releasing all those fuckers from my life" You have a daily pill case But there are no pills inside It holds the ashes of people who died the moment they saw you And the cinema we built together was to play the greats but we could never afford the power So instead in that dark cinema you just painted pictures of Kurosawa and I just stared at you like Orson Wells Getting fat off your style You are a movie that keeps exploding You are Dantes fireplace We were so broke I'd pour tap water into your mouth Burp against your lips so you could have champagne You loved the champagne. Sparring in the candlelight, I said to you "listen, the mathematical equivalent of a woman's beauty is directly relational to the amount that other women hate her" And you dear are hated A lot. Your boots are a soundtrack to adultery Thank God your feet follow the rhythm of loyalty I said if this thing kills me If this feeling Why don't you slice me open julien Uncurl my veins and fashion myself a noose So I can hold you once more Come on love In case you missed it When you dance alone I feel you twisting You cut your lip That's why I kissed it Pretend I'm there And it doesn't even even matter how far away my senses catch you And it doesn't even evn matter how far away my senses catch you I hope they cut you I am your blood I am your blood I am your blood I am your blood |
