Rescue

(album: This Adultery Is Ripe - 2000)

They're fucking after us...

My bathroom mirror
Is cluttered with colonial faces
It's a shock, it's a sight, powdered chalky white
It's a shock, it's a sight, powdered chalky white

You've got to, you've got to, you've got to rescue me
You've got to, you've got to, you've got to rescue me
You've got to, you've got to, you've got to rescue me
You've got to, you've got to, you've got to rescue me
You've got to, you've got to, you've got to rescue me
You've got to, you've got to, you've got to rescue me
You've got to, you've got to, you've got to rescue me
You've got to, you've got to, you've got to rescue me

They're stalking me, stalking me
Hiding in mirrors like flesh jack-o-lanterns
They're stalking me, stalking me
Hiding in mirrors like flesh jack-o-lanterns
It's a tease, it's a shock, they shriek, "The Redcoats are coming!"
It's a tease, it's a shock, they shriek, "The Redcoats are coming!"
It's a tease, it's a shock, they shriek, "The Redcoats are coming!"
It's a tease, it's a shock, they shriek, "The Redcoats are coming!"

Like a chorus of boiling lobsters

You've got to, you've got to, you've got to rescue me
You've got to, you've got to, you've got to rescue me
You've got to, you've got to, you've got to rescue me
You've got to, you've got to, you've got to rescue me
You've got to, you've got to, you've got to rescue me
You've got to, you've got to, you've got to rescue me
You've got to, you've got to, you've got to rescue me
You've got to, you've got to, you've got to rescue me
