Mary-Christ
by Sonic Youth
on Goo (1990), Hits Are For Squares (2008)
Talkin' to a punker priest
Just doggin' the breeze bout bein' in a tree
(He says they're free now)
Along comes Mary-Christ, skatin' light on ice
Says "Let's go on high"
(Later, priestoid)
Gotta go, I got a date now
Yeah, I know, shall not be late now
Possessed by X-ray eyes, her spirit spies into my lie
(Let's burn 'em out now)
Wraps my head in skin, says now I'm in, dig the candy sin
(Yeh, spit it out now)
Every time she sings that low song
Every time I know she's right/wrong
Angel in a devil skirt buys me a shirt
Says "I hope you like"
(Like what now?)
Hope, I hope you like
Like you like your hope
Walk the tightest rope
(I see, I know now)
Here we go, been waiting so long
Yeah, I know, for Mary to come along
Talkin' to a punker priest
Just doggin' the breeze bout bein' in a tree
(He says they're free now)
Along comes Mary-Christ, skatin' light on ice
Says "Let's go on high"
(Later, priestoid)
Gotta go, I got a date now
Yeah, I know, shall not be late now
Possessed by X-ray eyes, her spirit spies into my lie
(Let's burn 'em out now)
Angel in a devil skirt buys me a shirt
Says "I hope you like"
(Yeh, spit it out now)
Here we go, been waitin' so long
Yeah, I know, for Mary to come along
