"Rosemary" lyrics

Rosemary's gonna come undone
She don't wanna go to Heaven if she can't have fun
That's why she kissed the good Lord's son
Where the sun, it don't shine on anyone

She wants to go down to New Orleans
She wants to wander Bourbon Street outside of the dreams
Says she takes off arms and legs with a pin
She's a doll, she's not the kind you pin up to the wall

Rosemary's gonna suicide on the light
But on the streets, once the city sleeps, she's alive
Rosemary's gonna suicide in her dreams
And she don't care if you don't understand what that means

She don't believe in an overdose
"I never get high before I have to compose"
That's what she said when she was in my bed
She's a girl who don't believe in the end of the world

Her little black buddy told her she's insane
That's when the snake slipped inside her brain
Old Dionysus mended up a change
She's afraid she'll never see the old friend again

Rosemary's gonna suicide on the light
But on the streets, once the city sleeps, she's alive
Her scarlet letter's on her lips again
Her little black dress ain't her only friend
She likes the way he looks against her pale white skin
She's alive

Rosemary's gonna suicide on the light
But on the streets, once the city sleeps, she's alive
Her scarlet letter's on her lips again
Her little black dress ain't her only friend
She likes the way he looks against her pale white skin
She's alive
