Red Room Blues

on Love & the Dark (2019)
[Verse 1]
Your hand's up my sleeve, baby, your hand's up my sleeve
I'm shaking at the touch of acrylic and glaze
Pull out a nightmare, baby, pull out a nightmare
Give 'em to the kids like they're Milky Ways
And sell them to their parents in a silky paste
[Chorus]
I may not do what you want me to
When auctioneers are calling out the nightly news
And they put me in the corner 'cause I'm legal to use
[Verse 2]
Can't do this without you, babe, can't do this without you
Abuse me baby, use me baby, tell your truth
Seeing's believing, baby, seeing's believing
Bathe me in acidity and hang me up
Oh, hang me like Antigone 'til I wake up
[Chorus]
I may not do what you want me to
When auctioneers are calling out the nightly news
And they put me in the corner 'cause I'm legal to use
[Verse 3]
I got them red room blues, baby, red room blues
I am raised from the dead, I got a lot to do
Gimme my crown, dummy, gimme my crown
I'm here, and I'm gonna make the people bow
Watch the godless and the goodies tear each other down
I can hear their chomping jowels, bitch I love that sound
Yeah I'm here and I'm gonna burn the whole thing down
No, they won't hear you laughin' with their cameras out
No, they won't hear me laughin' with their cameras out
No, they won't hear you cryin' with [your/their?] cameras out
No, they won't hear you cryin' with [your/their?] cameras out
