Paroles de la chanson Bootsie par Empty Country
Hitched and tricked my way up
From Venus, West Virginia
My hair had gone gray
I was 13
Convulsing outside Port Authority
Those first fits and visions
Were disembodied nervous systems
Silver twisting ribbons of binary
Held each instant of miserable history
Two assholes with inverse halos
Had my panties down 'round my ankles
I was pretty sure it was curtains
'Til this huge beautiful lady started hurting them
Oh, Danny
I can still feel her carrying me
She said "the men you thought were brave
Are arrogant and depraved"
Hell is the place where everything happens
The band's playing all the songs ever written at once
Shape the chaos
Make your little story
Baby, this life's perfect purgatory
Danny hailed a cab
And I cried in her lap
She took me back to the Dakota
Little sandwiches and soda
Early 80s New York City
Biblically filthy
I was a child but still no door was closed to me
Those men were my protectors and my family
And the most beautiful creatures I have ever seen
"Honey, let us color it so you don't look like a little old lady"
Instead I rocked Herman Survivors and shaved my head clean
I think It was Charlie who started calling me Bootsie
Brown liquor, downers, and powders clouded out the bad dreams
But not before I saw some shit I wish I didn't see
Something terrible entering America through Miami
And I knew I'd have a little girl at the end of my 30s
Biblically filthy
I was a child but still no door was closed to me
Those men were my protectors and my family
And the most beautiful creatures I have ever seen
"Honey, let us color it so you don't look like a little old lady"
Instead I rocked Herman Survivors and shaved my head clean
I think It was Charlie who started calling me Bootsie
Brown liquor, downers, and powders clouded out the bad dreams
But not before I saw some shit I wish I didn't see
Something terrible entering America through Miami
And I knew I'd have a little girl at the end of my 30s
Mercifully I still can't see her story's ending
And there was strange silk sibilance in the summer rain
Sweet-smelling trash and rattling laughter in subterranean arcades
Champagne, cocaine. cigarettes and the dirty dawn
The ghost of the moment and the feeling of really belonging
Oh, Danny
You were sick but still singing
"Little hayseed
Where will the wind take us?"
Hell is the place where everything happens
The band's playing all the songs ever written at once
And there was strange silk sibilance in the summer rain
Sweet-smelling trash and rattling laughter in subterranean arcades
Champagne, cocaine. cigarettes and the dirty dawn
The ghost of the moment and the feeling of really belonging
Oh, Danny
You were sick but still singing
"Little hayseed
Where will the wind take us?"
Hell is the place where everything happens
The band's playing all the songs ever written at once
Shape the chaos
Make your little story
Baby, this life's perfect purgatory
Such a curse to know where all the time went
At the edges of the blackness
Dance their redshifted images
What a heartless era
What a catastrophe
Seconds of pleasure and pain
The record skips into infinity
Make your little story
Baby, this life's perfect purgatory
Such a curse to know where all the time went
At the edges of the blackness
Dance their redshifted images
What a heartless era
What a catastrophe
Seconds of pleasure and pain
The record skips into infinity
