Mary Queen Of Arkansas

1. Mary queen of Arkansas, it's not too early for dreaming

The sky is grown with cloud seeds sown and a bastard's love can be redeeming

Mary my queen your soft hulk is reviving

No you're not too late to desecrate the servants are just rising

2. Well I'm just a lonely acrobat, the live wire is my trade

I've been a shine boy for your acid brat and a wharf rat of your state

Mary my queen your blows for freedom are missing

You're not man enough for me to hate or woman enough for kissing

The big top is for dreamers, we can take the circus all the way to the border

And the gallows wait for martyrs whose papers are in order

But I was not born to live to die and you were not born for queening

It's not too late to infiltrate the servants are just leaving

3. Mary queen of Arkansas your white skin is deceiving

You wake and wait ooh to lie in bait and you almost got me believing

But on your bed Mary I can see the shadow of a noose

Oh I don't understand how you can hold me so tight and love me so damn loose

Em

But I know a place where we can go Mary

Where I can get a good job and start out all over again clean

I got contacts deep in Mexico where the servants have been seen
