Peacemaker Lyrics by Jesca Hoop

The House That Jack Built

2012

[Verse 1]
Put on your peacemaker blue
Warrior, warrior
Powder horn pepperbox boom
Warrior, warrior
Matchlock, rifle, sickle, axe, and club
Talon, dagger, marble razor

[Verse 2]
Put on your peacemaker and call upon your
God of war, god of war
Enyo, Anat, Chemosh, Oracle
Arm us, guard us, bring us home

[Verse 3]
Stay home, I beg you, oh, my lover
My lover, my lover
Or I will not serve you as your lover
Your lover, your lover

[Pre-Chorus]
Dita corset, stockings and thigh cuffs
Hornet play suit, oil, diamond dust
Until you draw action from a higher resonance

[Chorus]
I will tamp the lamp light in our window
I will drown the fire in our bed
Through my legs I'll withhold from you passage
And from my lips to take
Tongue and taste
Sex and make
Milk in your baby
Swords enraged
Fuck me, babe
Pray, abstain, girls reign

[Verse 4]
Put down your peacemaker blue
Warrior, warrior
Beaten and broken and bruised
Warrior, warrior

[Pre-Chorus]
Come and I'll unlock your chain link armor
Seven baths absolve your blood stained honor
Your honor, tell the water of

[Verse 5]
The bread in the basket, the game on the fire
The milk in the jar, the milk in the jar
The babe in the cradle, the mothers in bed
Asleep in the dark, asleep in the dark

[Verse 6]
You circled the cabin and broke down the door
You broke down the door, you broke down the door
You emptied the cradle and ravished the bed
You ravished the store, and fired your torch

[Pre-Chorus]
Now, to take you to the bed and there you lay
I drop my dress and feed your hungry eye
Until you draw action from a higher resonance

[Chorus]
I will tamp the lamplight in our window
I will drown the fire in our bed
Through my legs I'll withhold from you passage
And from my lips to take
Tongue and taste
Sex and make
Milk in your baby
Swords enraged
Fuck me, babe
Pray, abstain, girls reign
