the dresden dolls - lonesome organist rapes page-turner lyrics
he told me that i knew just what to laugh at
and i wanted to but i just couldn’t ask if he would take it back so i could know for certain
so on the bench i watched his left hand crossing
while doubling entendres with the voicings
he said “oh darling, you’re charming, please don’t find it alarming
if i pull this stop out to free up a hand for heavy petting”
now there there
i’m a friendly man
i joke about s-x because it’s funny when you’re frightened
so silently i sat and turned the pages
recalculating our respective ages
over my shoulder he muttered if i get any older
you can hack my wrists off with your choice of objects no i’m kidding
don’t be scared
i’m a friendly man
i joke about death because its funny when you’re frightened
this is as far as i could get he jabbed a needle in my neck
erasing all the evidence but there were matchsticks in my pants
and if a rock should hit my head and i remember what he did
you’ll be there very first to know
maybe i’ll find out why this d-mn thing wont stop bleeding
he told me that i showed a great potential
that given i turned heads and pages fame would be a piece of cake but
practice was essential
so like a stupid child i believed it
and golly who would ever had agreed if
i had been schubert or mozart
devoted to the fine art of perfecting absolutely everything inconsequential
don’t be sad i’ll come back again
i joke about trash cause it takes cl-ss to be enlightened
so several decades have gone by
i am still sitting by his side
i turn the pages faithfully
he turns his head and smiles at me
and with a wink he said “i doubt
we would be anywhere without
your gift for keeping truth and consequence from meeting”
