Cecilia and the Silhouette Saloon Lyrics by The Blood Brothers
...Burn, Piano Island, Burn
2003
Murder = White Out Cancer = Birth Blouse Mirror = Perfect Glass Spouse Oil = Sex Paint Shower = Water Saint Death decodes the howls from our hands Skull = Noise Test TV = Fuck Test Mirror = Siamese Gun Kiss Sugar = Birth Bait Murder = Loves Fate Death distills the camouflage from our dance Death inverts the red from romance Death X-rays the angels of chance Death, the anti-mirror of infants Like a picture hiding beneath the digital avalanche Murder = White Out Cancer = Birth Blouse Mirror = Perfect Glass Spouse Oil = Sex Paint Shower = Water Saint Death decodes the howls from our hands Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Yeah! When Cecilia's grave cracked like a dirt cocoon She pulled up a stool at the Silhouette Saloon The player piano's mumbling crippled jigs Black widows knitting victimless wigs When Cecilia's throat slit like a second set of lips She drooled braille bibles onto the brothel bed spread Like an egg whose yoke defies child-bearing hips Like a ghost who fears all of the deceased and dead Time eats at the flesh and spits out the shadow Like a useless wishbone, like a useless wishbone! But that locket spinning around her neck Whose hearth heats a dead valentine And the paper trail leads way to a muted grave, yeah To a muted grave, yeah Where's his voice now? = A dead tone in the flutter of drunken wings Where is his blushed cheek now? = A face unraveled in shadow, veiled in blind laughter Where are those sex ripened lips? = His kiss print still warm on several necks Where is love now? Where is love now? Where is love now? Bah-bah-boo-bah-bo-bo Where is love now? A-bah-bah-boo-bo Where is love now? Bah-bah-boo-bah-bo-bo Where is love now? Bah-bah-boo-bo Where is love now? Bah-bah-boo-bah-bo-bo Where is love now? Bah-bah-boo-bo Murder = White Out Cancer = Birth Blouse Mirror = Perfect Glass Spouse Oil = Sex Paint Shower = Water Saint Death decodes the howls from our hands Skull = Noise Test TV = Fuck Test Mirror = Siamese Gun Kiss, yeah Sugar = Birth Bait Murder = Loves Fate Death distills the camouflage from our dance Death inverts the red from romance Death X-rays the angels of chance Death, the anti-mirror of infants Like a picture hiding beneath the digital avalanche Like a picture hiding beneath the digital avalanche! Like a picture hiding beneath the digital avalanche! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! Yeah!
