Wallflowers - SKINNY LIPS lyrics

(Jakob Dylan)

Well there goes Sally, my old lady

She gone crazy drawing lines on her face

And you know I got a feeling that Sally been a'stealing

'Cause I was hip to this, that you don't trust Skinny Lips

Sally's got a good heart, raised in a churchyard

But it ain't ever far from the backyard

To the boulevard

Cemetery girls ain't fun

They don't taste sweet like sugar plums

She wasn't always like this, but she did have skinny lips

Well I don't believe it

She don't, she don't need it from me

Hey hey hey hey hey hey

Now I seen her on weekends, my little rose garden

I say hello to all her friends and the gentlemen

Now I heard it from a junkie that my old lady

Wasn't mine but everyone's Skinny Lips

Well I don't believe it

She don't, she don't need it from me

Hey hey hey hey hey hey

Come on, come on, come on, I need a witness

Man it shouldn't be like this

'Cause I know you won't be the pill

That makes me feel that I'm the best

Come on, come on Skinny Lips

Come on and give me just one kiss

'Cause you know I only got one wish

I wanna be in love with Skinny Lips

Well I don't believe it

She don't, she don't need it from me

Hey hey hey hey hey hey
