Beautiful Horses

(album: Crimes - 2004)

Ride! Ride!
Ride! Ride!
Ride! Ride!
Ride! Ride!

Ride the crippled horse
Ride the broken mare
Ride the jaundice buck
Ride the dead Pegasus

You're so fucked up, you're a fucking mess

Ride the nauseous horse
Ride the broken mare
Ride the bony nag
Ride the tattered pony

You're so fucked up, you're a fucking mess
Manes in your mouth, hooves on your chest

From the country club, girl
To the crypt now, girl
Saddle up now, girl

Climb into the television
Stick your horrible nose into every sitcom
Into the vile game show host's
Cockpit mouth and down his throat
(C'mon pony, demand your rights)
Jump over jungles cooking in napalm
Leap over nations shaved by carpet bombs
(C'mon pony, demand your rights!)
Into the burning treasury
And set the heart attack children free

Prance into the halls of Congress
Vomit into the speakers lap
Gallop into your romance novels
Dance atop heavy pectorals

Ride! Ride!
Ride! Ride!
Ride! Ride!
Ride! Ride!

You're so fucked up, you're a fucking mess
Trash can saddle. Ride in the show pony parade
And collapse and come in fucking last
