She said I bite my nails
Then I grow them back
Then I paint them sparkling red or black
And nail a horseshoe on his your back.
Coz you carry all my hopes.
Lucky for you I love you
She said I drink to forget you
I eat for two because I've missed you.
She said she shouts she screams
Because it pleases him, it pleases me, please…
She says her body aches it yearns
It screams for him to me. Oh please.
Is she crazy? Or is she just lazy?
Lucky for her I love her too
Lucky for him I love him too
Or we'd both go insanely crazy
We'd both be Just too, too lazy.
But in truth, what would we miss…
If there's no love
In our Eiger climb descent from twisted bitterness?
If there's no love
No restorative magic forgiveness in each other's kiss.
She said I bite my nails
Then I grow them back
Then I paint them sparkling red or dripping black
And nail a horseshoe on his your back.
She said she rides his saddle bareback
Coz he's a wild mustang,
She said he shoots from his hip
Coz he's calling out the thunder from her thighs.
Together they ride high
Oh Higher, higher than a flying eagle over the Eiger.
When she bites chews her nails as they together grow old
With horseshoe sold. They are stuck like horse-hoof glue
Always together they ride high amen.
