carolyn wonderland - feed me to the lions lyrics
“ain’t no use in me cryin no more.” she says,
“my own tears just make me sicker.”
so she took twenty dollars and she left for the store
to find faith in the form of cheap liquor
“i have only been drunk for four years” she would joke,
“since i was twenty-one”
but there’s no one to talk to in the check out line
n-body to share in the fun
she says, “lord, i don’t want to give up
i just need a reason for trying.
so hide me away in the jungle now, lord
before they feed me to the lions.
yeah, before they feed me to the lions.”
on her drive home she was thinking
how he’d finally crossed that line
she snuck in and packed up one suitcase quickly
before she changed her mind
she left him no note, no, no nothing
placed the bottle between her knees
at a red light she unscrewed the thunderbird
to have it ready in case of need
she says, “lord, i don’t want to give up
i just need a reason for trying.
so hide me away in the jungle now, lord
before they feed me to the lions.
yeah, before they feed me to the lions.”
one night on the town is just tease enough
the open road it’s calling
she buys one more drink with the change in her purse
gets the rest from a man who calls her darling
thinking about him, it ain’t hard to do
the hard part is keeping from crying
with friends all around she retreats to the car
to sleep off intentions of flying
she says, lord, i don’t want to give up
i just need a reason for trying.
so hide me away in the jungle now, lord
before they feed me to the lions.
yeah, before they feed me to the lions.
