lyrics

SUSPIRIA

Never been so delirious, got a date with Suspiria
Never felt any better to have braved such bad weather
Out of league, well I may be, with a two headed lady
But I said let’s go get her, although I’m no go-getter

Her car was platinum grey, like her eyes and the roots of her hair
If I had my way, we’d just drive going nowhere

She wrote me in a letter, let’s meet at the operetta
To see her favorite diva howl like an old retriever
I followed her back home and couldn’t find a phone
Just yards of naked wire, got me tangled with desire

We lay down in her lair until the sun went down
She awoke, combed her hair, and went out to paint the town

It went on for six weeks, my mind full with bliss
Then she gave me one cheek, and said we can’t go on like this

She said I’ve grown quite tired, your appeal has long expired
She packed my bags up hurried, I watched her puzzled, worried
I stood and blocked the doorway, she said, “well have it your way”
And threw them out the window, I never felt quite so low

Now she sits with Miss Regina in a Lazyboy recliner
Sipping coffee laced with whiskey, she thinks it’s rather risky
I sit at home and cower, a fist full of wilted flowers
I’ve pulled out all my phone lines to authenticate my love shrine
