Lyrics Concrete Blonde

Concrete Blonde

The Sky Is A Poisonous Garden

The stars above shine down below

The fever you hold on this night

Deathly cold

I can feel from this side of the door

I can feel Eleanor

He said, sun don't rise

He said sun don't shine

He said don't bring tomorrow

To justify tonight

The moon is full-the stars are bright

And the sky is a poisonous garden

Tonight.

Sip your Tequila.

Give me some time

To unlearn all I've learned for the

spring to unwind

And then came your sweet mouth

I began to move mine.

They knew with the dawn

They knew with the day

They knew what they had

Would be young naked prey

And attacked from all sides

By a world filled with

Poison and hate

Eleanor trembles.

Eleanor moans.

Somehow, this body is someone

She always has known

She cries tears on his chest

O so silent and slow-

She said please don't go.

Please don't go

And she cried and she died in his arms

And he cried nevermore

The moon is full, the stars are bright

And the sky is a poisonous garden

Tonight.
