Margot & The Nuclear So & So's - Broadripple Is Burning Lyrics
Honey, broadripple is burningAnd the girls are getting sickOff snortin' coke up in the bathroomWhile their boyfriends pick up chicksAnd darling, I'm lost, I heard you whisperingThat night in Fountain SquareThe trash-filled streets made me wishWe were headed homeAnd there was love inside the basementWhere that woman used to lieIn a sleeping bag we sharedUpon the floor most every nightAnd darling, I'm drunkAnd everything that I have loved has turned to stoneSo pack your bags and come back homeAnd I'm wasted, you can taste itDon't look at me that way'Cause I'll be hangin' from a ropeI will haunt you like a ghost.And if my woman was a fireShe'd burn out before I wakeAnd be replaced by pints of whiskeyCigarettes and outer spaceThen somebody movesAnd everything you thought you had is gone to shitWe've got a lot, don't ever forget thatAnd I wrote this on an airplaneWhere the people looked like antsAnd when a woman that you loved is goneShe's was bombing east JapanAnd don't *****ing move'Cause everything you thing you have will go to shitWe've got a lot, don't you dare forget thatAnd I'm wasted, you can taste itDon't look at me that way'Cause I'll be hangin' from a ropeI will haunt you like a ghost.And I'm wasted, you can taste itDon't look at me that way'Cause I'll be hanging from a ropeI'll haunt you like a ghost
