Big Burned Hand Lyrics

When the arrogant goddess of love Came to steal my shoes She had a white-hot pistol And a homemade heart tattoo
Saying one's to give and one's to take away But neither of them will keep you off your knees The children bowed and bolted off the stage While the lion and the lamb kept fighting for the shade tree
And the ransom god of war Came to set me free He had a couple of cold bottles Full of gasoline
Saying all I love is all that I allow You blew me a kiss of a big burned hand I nearly choked with smoke and fell down While the lion and the lamb kept shooting at a tin can
When the gun-shy goddess of love Came back to patch things up She had a Purple Heart And mother's milk in a plastic cup
Saying he loves to lay you gently in the grave He loves the flag you fold before you go When the curtain rolls, the crowd is blown away While the lion and the lamb kept fucking in the back road
