"Hawkmoon" lyrics
"Hawkmoon"
In the bus, I sleep all day
In the back I am, uh-huh
Everybody wants to know my name
I give just a sliver to them, uh-huh
That's the way, that's the way
I've been taught I am
Any day, any way
I drink a fifth before 3 p.m.
Little girl with a buck knife and a fake ID
Sleeping bag and a backpack in the big city
And tell me why, well, don't it look like I'm always crying
You try to hide when you're high
Baby, I know you're lying
Well, it's a hawk moon and it's just begun to rise
Here's a silver spoon so you could gouge out both your eyes
I couldn't believe them when they'd say, "Watch out"
I'm becoming the kind of girl that they warned me about
And you'll never know the way I miss Ms. Jonathan
She was beaten in the street and then I never saw her again
She opened up my mind in the holes of her fishnet tights
Dildo waving on her car antenna and
I could've ridden shotgun forever
She'd say, "Oh, baby, where do you wanna go?
I know a place no one will ever know," well
"Oh, baby, where do you wanna go?
I know a place no one will ever know"
Well, it's a hawk moon and it's just begun to rise
Here's a silver spoon, you could eat your heart out as a prize
I couldn't believe them when they'd say, "Watch out"
I'm becoming the kind of girl that they warned me about
