BOYS FOR PELE
Lyrics

 

B-SIDES

Doughnut Song (live alternate version)
 
You can tell me it's over
Oh that's it's over
You can tell me over, over your shoulder
You can tell me it's over
I said come in Houston

 

Had me a trick and a kick and your message
You’ll never gain weight from a doughnut hole
Then thought that I could decipher your message
There’s no one here dear
No one at all
 
And if I’m wasting all your time this time
I guess you never learned to take
And if I’m hanging on to your shade
I guess I’m way beyond the pale
 
And southern men can grow gold
Can grow perty
Blood can be perty like a delicate man
Copper to steal to a hinge that is faltered
That let’s you in
Let’s you in
Let’s you in
 
And if I’m wasting all your time
I guess you never learned to take
And if I’m hanging on to your shade
I guess I’m way beyond the pale
 
Something’s just
Something’s just keeping you numb

You can tell me it's over
Oh that it's over
You can tell me over, over your shoulder
You can tell me it's over
And that it's over
You can tell
Don't say a word
You don't
You can tell me it's over and over
You can, you can over, over your shoulder
Yes over
Said and it's over
Come in Houston
Come in Houston
 
You told me last night you were a sun now with your very own devoted satellite
Happy for you
And I am sure that I hate you
Too many yes
Too many able fires yes
 
You’ve been wasting all my time this time
I guess you never learned to take
And if I’m hanging on to your shade
I guess I’m way beyond the pale
 
Had me a trick and a kick and your message
You’ll never gain weight from a doughnut hole
