Lyrics The Tear Garden

The Tear Garden

Sheila Liked The Rodeo

Sheila liked the rodeo

She'd take a ringside seat

She'd murmur doo-dee-doo-dee-doo

She'd eat

Then one day wild Eliza bolted and knocked her off her seat

She now sits in my wardrobe

She's discrete

She is perfectly preserved

I get a head

And I keep it

I pop it in my mouth

Sondra liked the circus

She'd bounce around on trampolines

She'd swing between the lampshades

And lunched on lighted kerosene

One fine day she leapt to Leo

Who finished in between

She's resting in the bathroom now

Peachy clean

She is perfectly preserved

Krista quoted Castenada

She munched her cactus raw

The mescal worm would turn to mecca

And squirm towards the door

And one day she swilled the pill that pinned her to the floor

She spaced out in the closet

I adore her

She is perfectly preserved
