Posies - Burn And Shine lyrics

18

Burn and shine, son

1f

And keep your spirit clean

25

For this is not a dress rehersal

13

Junior phoenix

5

1e

With your ash-filled eyes

24

Who will harbor your misfortune

5

26

Your mother says your father says

21

He does not want to tell you

1f

(as if he didn't know you)

5

1a

Behind the lighthouse

24

There's still the hole you made

29

Better fill it in or it will get you

15

So talcum powder

1f

Is now your closest friend

22

Smooth and white and ordinary

5

26

Your father says your mother says

22

She does not want to tell you

20

(as if she didn't know you)

5

30

(and in the dream everyone is holding hands

21

In a circle and you heal...)

5

14

Do you remember

1b

The taste of pemmican?

1f

Then say hello to hiawatha

19

She's still frowning

17

At your puffy face

25

Overweight and barely breathing?

5

1c

No one ever said a word

22

They did not want to tell you

1f

As if they didn't know you

1f

As if they didn't know you

1f

As if they didn't know you

13

Burn and shine

1a

You burn and shine...
