yoko ono & yo la tengo - hedwig's lament/exquisite corpse lyrics

Loading...

[hedwig’s lament]
i was born on the other side
of a town ripped in two
and no matter how hard i tried
i’d end up black and blue

i rose from off of the doctor’s slab
i lost a piece of my heart
now everyone gets to take a stab
they cut me up into parts

i gave a piece to my mother
i gave a piece to my man
i gave a piece to the rock star
he took the good stuff and ran

[exquisite corpse]
oh god, i’m all sewn up
a hardened razor+cut
scar+map across my body
and you can trace the lines
through misery’s design
that map across my body

a collage
i’m all sеwn up
a montage
i’m all sewn up
a random pattern with a needlе and thread
the overlapping way diseases are spread
to a tornado body
with a hand grenade head
and the legs are two lovers entwined

inside i’m hollowed out
outside’s a paper shroud
and all the rest’s illusion
that there’s a will and soul
that we can wrest control
from chaos and confusion

a collage
i’m all sewn up
a montage
i’m all sewn up

the automatist’s undoing
the whole world starts unscr+w+ng
as time collapses and sp+ce warps
you see decay and ruin
i tell you, “no, no, no, no
you make such an exquisite corpse”

i got it all sewn up
a hardened razor cut scab up across my body
and you can trace the lines through misery’s design
that map across my body
a collage
i’m all sewn up
a montage
i’m all sewn up
