Bishop, CA Lyrics by Xiu Xiu

Xiu Xiu for Life: The First 5 Years

2006

[Verse 1]
This blue dot of sickly light
That is daytime in your embarrassed town
Burns a hole in the fading yellow ribbon
On your fading wine colored Cavalier
[Verse 2]
The mine has fallen down on you
As you dug a well of death
Milk and sugar water
In brief sympathy with them
[Verse 3]
When we see the hate in your eyes
It doesn't make us better men
The mine has crushed your brother
As he ruined our rotting sky
A white hot blast of black hot powder
And you lapse into a real boy
[Verse 2]
The mine has fallen down on you
As you dug a well of death
Tears and sugar water flow
In briefest sympathy with them
[Verse 4]
Should you be ashamed for more than that
Than that your daddy raped you silly?
Leaning my head on the refrigerator
Crying for the stupid world we share
[Outro]
Walla, walla, walla, walla, walla, walla, hey
Walla, walla, walla, walla, hey, hey
Walla, walla, walla, walla, walla, walla, hey
Walla, walla, hey, hey, hey
Walla, walla, walla, walla, walla, walla, hey
Walla, walla, hey, hey, hey
Walla, walla, hey
Walla, walla, hey
Hey, hey, hey, hey
