Jerome Lyrics by Ruth Ruth

The Little Death

1996

[Intro]
I want to
Take you home
And prick you with a pin
Like Jerome
He don't like day

I want to
Get you alone
And mend your broken wing
Like Jerome

[Pre-Chorus]
He don't like day
Only night
I watch you flicker 'round the light

[Chorus]
A moth can cry
I've heard it weeping
Jerome, you're the only thing
Keeping me alive
Yeah, keeping me alive
Yeah, keeping me alive

[Verse 2]
I love you
And I let it show
With a brand new pig-feet jar
To call home
You don't like day

I love you
When you fly
But I'll keep you on page three
Petrified

[Pre-Chorus]
You don't likе day
Only night
I watch you flicker 'round the light

[Chorus]
A girl can cry
I've hеard you weeping
I think you're the only thing
Keeping me alive
Yeah, keeping me alive
Yeah, keeping me

[Post-Chorus]
Well, all the aggravation
When you're under magnification

[Verse 3]
I want to take you home
And rip out your ugly heart
Like Jerome

[Pre-Chorus]
You don't like day
Only night
I watch you flicker 'round the light

[Outro]
A moth can cry
I've heard it weeping
Jerome, you're the only thing
Keeping me alive
I've heard you weeping
I think you're the only thing
Keeping me alive
Yeah, keeping me alive
Yeah, keeping me alive
Oh
Keeping me alive
Yeah, keeping me
