Lyrics

Rosary

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I'll string along

I'll string along

oo whaoo whaoo whaoo

Come mornings

my beads on a face

A thread

A thong

oo whaoo whaoo whaoo

We can save it

We can change it

Put it in lines across the room

But we'll never

stop it bristling

and I gotta quit

With a ribbonless hair

With a wire of snare

oo whaoo whaoo whaoo

With all the trembling vein

that you can bare

oo whaoo whaoo whaoo

We can save it

We can change it

Put it in lines across the room

But we'll never

stop it pimpling

and I gotta quit

Scrape a little pattern

to a sty

I kiss holes for the bullets

in case of thigh

in case of thigh

I kiss holes for the bullets

and I gotta quit

and I gotta quit
