lyrics

well they see love as nothing more than just some song lyric
you withdraw inward biting a cloud
not thinking about when they may be done

yr friends say that their greatest trick was appearing in the guise of a god
dressing up hell like the heaven you never knew was always gone

and when the blood leaks out from under them
and they sweat the tears of the eyes they saw through
in comes their silver brass call singin

yr a Mary O. Nett, Girl
tyin strings to yr flesh now darlin
yr a Mary O. Nett, Girl
have you ever learned to say No
yr a Mary O. Nett, Girl
sequins overgrowing yr foresight
Mary O. Nett, Girl
have you ever told them No

get yr ass in the car and get it up to Juneau leave yr whole life behind like you did when you came out

like you did
like you did
like you did when you came out

they see you as an instrument
to be blown into and spat in
to stuff you in a suitcase and to hide you away til show-off day

you’ve got folks with testimonies
who all took care of themselves
cause in the end we’re our own best mother
hot moms of a feather
kick ass together

and when the blood leaks out from under them
and they sweat the tears of the eyes they saw through
in comes their silver brass call singin

yr a Mary O. Nett, Girl
tyin strings to yr flesh now darlin
yr a Mary O. Nett, Girl
have you ever learned to say No
yr a Mary O. Nett, Girl
sequins overgrowing yr foresight
Mary O. Nett, Girl
have you ever told them No

get yr ass in the car and get it up to Juneau leave yr whole life behind like you did when you came out

like you did
like you did
like you did when you came out

slammed by another thunderstorm
as my house sinkholes thru the ground
i escaped that noise in time
the tease is strong
and i admire the shade
i need to cool out from the sun’s view anyway
from trying to hold a solar flare in a plastic cup again

one day ill be blessed with the right ray of sunshine
i fall for every twinkle that comes toward me
