Bài hát Deep Dark Truthful Mirror Báo Lỗi

One day you're going to have to face

A deep dark truthful mirror

And it's going to tell you things that I still love

you too much to say

The sky was just a purple bruise, the ground

was iron

And you fell all around the town until you

looked the same


[Chorus:]

The same eyes, the same lips, the same lie from

your tongue trips

Deep dark, deep dark truthful mirror

Deep dark, deep dark truthful mirror


Now the flagstone streets where the newspaper

shouts ring to the boots of roustabouts

But you're never in any doubt, there's something

happening somewhere


You chase down the road till your fingers bleed

On a fiberglass tumbleweed


You can blow around the town, but it all shuts

down the same


[Chorus]


So you bay for the boy in the tiger-skin trunks

They set him up, set him up on the stool

He falls down, falls down like a drunk

And you drink till you drool

And it's his story you'll flatter

You'll stretch him out like a saint

But the canvas that he splattered will be the

picture that you never paint


[Chorus]


A stripping puppet on a liquid stick gets into it

pretty thick

A butterfly drinks a turtle's tears, but how do

you know he really needs it?


'Cos a butterfly feeds on a dead monkey's hand,

Jesus wept he felt abandoned

You're spellbound baby there's no doubting that

Did you ever see a stare like a Persian cat?


[Chorus]
