Intro: B
Verse:
It's only when your poison spins into the life you'd hoped to live
and suddenly you wake up in a shaken panic now
You had set me up like a lamb to slaughter
Garbo as a farmer's daughter
Unbelievable, the gospel according to who?
I lay right down
Chorus:
All your sad and lost apostles
hum my name and flare their nostrils
Choking on the bones you tossed to them
now I'm not one to sit and spin
because living well's the best revenge
Baby, I am calling you on that
Verse:
Don't turn your talking points on me.
History will set me free
The future is ours and you don't even rate a footnote now!
So who's chasing you? Where did you go?
You disappear mid-sentence
In a judgement crisis I see my in and go for it
You weakened shill.
Chorus:
All your sad and lost apostles
hum my name and flare their nostrils
Choking on the bones you tossed to them
now I'm not one to sit and spin
because living well is the best revenge
and baby, I am calling you on that
Verse:
You savor your dying breath
I forgive but I don't forget
You work it out, let's hear that argument again
Camera three... GO NOW!
Chorus:
All your sad and lost apostles
hum my name and flare their nostrils
Choking on the bones you tossed to them
now I'm not one to sit and spin
because living well is the best revenge
and baby, I am calling you on that
Baby, I am calling you on that
Baby, I am calling you on that
End on B
