Daisy

It's spring, and the cherry blossoms sprout
 The legs are out, and the bronzed chests
 And fires bejewelling the southwest
 Thank you, darling, for these silver gelatin echoes of me
 With you smiling like he has to for the cause, for the tribe
 For the boys, for the lie
 ♪
 Nobody heard me crying in my sleep
 And me and the men of the frontier stack the bodies in a heap
 Jimmy grabs a beer and we wash our hands in the creek
 And talk is cheap
 And frangipanis growing back home
 And shading the bottom of the line
 Once we were dreaming of pearls
 Now me and my sons all dream of iron
 Well Daisy baby, are you driving home?
 'Cause this baby doesn't want to walk alone
 She said, "Ooh" as she grabbed my tongue
 Sometimes you gotta rock the cradle, baby, on your own
 Is that boogoo with the big chain?
 Is that Annie with the white dress?
 Is that granny with the white man
 With the no name and the no stress?
 Like, what about the empire? What about the cross?
 What about the halos? Are the angels inside with the Xbox?
 That's a dollar for any can
 And on Thursdays I'll be heading back to see my man
 Well Daisy baby, are you driving home?
 'Cause this baby doesn't want to walk alone
 She said, "Ooh" as she grabbed my tongue
 Sometimes you gotta rock the cradle, baby, on your own
 Damn, it's cool on the bathroom floor
 Well, Daisy doesn't have a babe no more
 Damn, it's cool on the bathroom floor
 Daisy doesn't have a babe no more

 Did seeing real blood remind you that I had a heart?
 That was the last kiss, that was a real one
 When I see you next year I'll be perfect, yeah
 I'll be perfect for you, babe
