《Diamonds and Pearls》歌词

[00:00:00] Diamonds and Pearls - Sage Francis

[00:00:49] Surprising the world with diamonds and pearls

[00:00:53] But a song about a girl ain't really about a girl

[00:00:56] Got a two-way vanity mirror I'm an amity villain

[00:01:00] With a peeping Tom complex

[00:01:02] You're just a soul collector

[00:01:04] You keep putting 'em in a trash bag

[00:01:06] You push 'em in a shopping cart

[00:01:08] Go and act sad

[00:01:09] When there's none left to collect

[00:01:11] So you go on and you make more

[00:01:13] But wait what you lose them to the state for

[00:01:15] The next time you see me

[00:01:17] It'll be through plexiglass

[00:01:18] There ain't no bail outs in this jail house

[00:01:20] Ain't no more petty cash

[00:01:22] Easy come easy go

[00:01:23] A penny saved a penny earned

[00:01:25] And I've learned life is clich

[00:01:27] One of these days you get what you deserve

[00:01:29] Surprising the world with diamonds and pearls

[00:01:32] But a song about a girl ain't really about a girl

[00:01:36] Got a 2-way vanity mirror

[00:01:39] Firing a blind eye I turn from an 800-pound gorilla

[00:01:42] In the midst of misdirected anger

[00:01:45] False blood can run thinner than icy water

[00:01:47] Watch the fang-banger

[00:01:49] Flirt with the Death-star

[00:01:50] I cried by your bedside

[00:01:51] Decided right then and there to pretend you were alive

[00:01:55] Maybe baby lie to me invade my privacy

[00:01:58] Have the decency to say bye after taking the pride

[00:02:01] Domestic piracy

[00:02:02] You ran out of family plunder

[00:02:04] And launch pads to crash

[00:02:05] So when you're done playing dumb empty the trash

[00:02:08] We're looking for our lives back

[00:02:10] We wish we could have saved yours

[00:02:11] There's nothing we can buy back

[00:02:13] Cause everything was paid off

[00:02:15] I found you in a pawn shop

[00:02:16] You were stuck behind a glass case

[00:02:18] I watched as the cost dropped

[00:02:20] Puppy dog sad face

[00:02:21] Put a down payment on my meal plan

[00:02:24] Just to see your sh*t eating grin

[00:02:26] Save the frown for when you need to shed your skin

[00:02:28] Selling b******t shells to yourself

[00:02:30] The layers are coming off

[00:02:31] Economic failed professional victim of sale cutting costs

[00:02:35] Charity case don't ask me to donate

[00:02:37] You axe murdered your soul mate

[00:02:39] My back's hurting from an tax burden

[00:02:41] Pull your own weight

[00:02:42] A punching bag for hire

[00:02:43] Every minute there's a sucker bet

[00:02:45] So what's the over and under you'll rise up from the debt

[00:02:48] With the complexion of a ghost

[00:02:50] The resurrection was a hoax

[00:02:51] But 2000 years later it's like nobody knows

[00:02:55] If you think you're slick enough

[00:02:56] To turn a trick and spin the story

[00:02:58] Just cause Jesus is your fair-weather pimp

[00:03:00] And you caught me praying with my fingers crossed

[00:03:03] So I shuffled up the deck

[00:03:04] Is this the card that you picked

[00:03:06] Well if not how about this

[00:03:08] Missionary ain't a job its a position so assume

[00:03:11] It's a victimless crime watch dog has an owner thats abusive

[00:03:15] Now isnt that ironic With one hand in my pocket

[00:03:18] And the other choking out the street corner prophet

[00:03:21] Uncrossed my fingers and said

[00:03:22] "Look at me when I'm talking dear

[00:03:24] I ain't mad at you and thats the only miracle here"

[00:03:34] I ain't mad at you

[00:03:41] I'm surprising the world with diamonds and pearls

[00:03:44] But a song about a girl ain't really about a girl
