Holly Going Lightly

(album: This Night - 2002)

I was stark and I was ravening...
I was idle in spring, and it felt good...
I was fashioned after something made of wood,
That I shouldn't have done...
Some girls got guns...
And some get into running favors for the Queen,
Like deciphering what it means when the band goes
"DooRah DooRah DooRah DooRah!"

I was 'bedsit' and reviews were rave...
I dug your poetry a grave and it felt good...
I was modeled after something made of wood,
That I shouldn't have done...
Some boys build guns...
And some get into running errands for the King
Like making out the words when the band goes
"DooRah DooRah DooRah DooRah!"

Hey there, pretty flower...
Get yourself together...
Momma's been looking for you,
But momma should know better.

I was silver... I was gold...
I watched Holly going lightly down the road...
