lyrics

“No Surprise”

I am an angel
I am a toad
I wait, I wait, I wait
For the sun to explode

I am a devil
A funeral pyre
Tearing and scratching at
One’s open desire, singing

A-whew, A-whew, A-whew,
A-whew, A-whew, A-whew,
A-whew, A-whew, A-whew
I hear the church bells ringing, singing
A-whew, A-whew, A-whew,
A-whew, A-whew, A-whew,
A-whew, A-whew, A-whew

Don’t care what your mamma says
I’m coming after you tonight
Don’t care what your daddy says
I put him in the ground tonight

There by the window
Hear the lover’s call
Roses and candles, then
Another fall

Scary monster movie
On the TV screen
Angry and restless, now
That monster is me, singing

A-whew, A-whew, A-whew,
A-whew, A-whew, A-whew,
A-whew, A-whew, A-whew
I hear the church bells ringing, singing
A-whew, A-whew, A-whew,
A-whew, A-whew, A-whew,
A-whew, A-whew, A-whew

Don’t care what your brother says
I’m coming after you tonight
Don’t care what your sister says
I put her on her back tonight

I cut you open, look inside
An empty hole, it’s no surprise
Dead inside

I drink your water, it tastes like blood
A gutted ship lost in the flood
Capsized, it’s no surprise

It’s no surprise, it’s no surprise
My love for you has been revised
It’s no surprise
