blood brothers - peacock skeleton with crooked feathers lyrics

Loading...

if the sea shakes like an empty maraca, yeah.
and, i know, i know, i know, i know.
and, she falls in love with the sounds of ships sinking?
and, i know, i know, i know, i know.

which peac-ck is beast? which peac-ck is priest?
if the heavens part
n-body, nowhere, nothing.
every apartment is vacant, every home for rent?
hey, peac-ck?
what’s that?
i just wanna know what those feathers are made out of
is it bruises or roses or cradles or coffins.
oh, it’s all those!
which peac-ck is beast? which peac-ck is priest?

your friends are all cripple, all wither, all wilt
and, i know, i know, i know, i know.
and you smile at their pain, from your angel bone stilts.
i know, i know, i know, i know.
which peac-ck is beast? which peac-ck is priest?

if the brick you throw
puts a bullet in your skull
police boot lands atop your gaping jaw.
hey, peac-ck?
yeah, what’s that?
i just wanna know what the babies mouth is full of.
is it flies, or cries, or straw?
which peac-ck is beast? which peac-ck is priest?
which peac-ck’s police? which peac-ck is thief?

if machine guns come knock-knock-knockin’,
who’s cashing out your bad luck?
wedding bells sound like death knells, baby
is a wealthy groom worth all it’s gloom?
tuxedos slither off corpses,
and copulate wild on wedding cake
and the priest starts snapping photos?
and, there’s a peac-ck on your shoulder
pole dancing around your neck
while reciting the book of revelation.

so who do you love?
who do you trust?
when your friend’s take a match to your front lawn?
a panicked face makes the peac-ck proud.
so who do you love?
who do you trust?
who do you kill when your senator drags out your first born?
a panicked face makes the peac-ck proud.

if the forest turns to static, and the black branches, too?
and, i know, i know, i know, i know.
your body starts to fall into a concrete tutu?
i know, i know, i know, i know.
which peac-ck is beast? which peac-ck is priest?

if you strike for better wages at the cola factory,
and they drink champagne;
as they kick in your teeth?
hey, peac-ck?
yeah, what’s that?
i just wanna know what that blood tasted like.
was it sugar or vinegar or whiskey or dirt? (it’s all of those.)
which peac-ck is beast? which peac-ck is priest?

if machine guns go knock-knock-knocking’,
who’s crashing out your bad luck?
if wedding bells sound like death knells, baby
is a wealthy groom worth all his gloom?
tuxedos slither off corpses
and capulate wild on the wedding cake,
and the priest starts snapping photos,
there’s a peac-ck on his shoulder,
pole dancing around your neck
while reciting the book of revelation

things are never what they seem.
the peac-cks static harmonies.

the peac-ck spreads it’s crooked feather.
(static harmonies)(4x)

so who do you love?
who do you trust?
when your friends take a match to your front lawn.
a panicked face that makes a peac-ck proud.
so who do you love?
who do you trust?
who do you kill when your senator drags out your first born?
a panicked face that makes a peac-ck proud.
