You’re boned like a saint
With the consciousness of a snake
You’re the kind of girl
I’d like to find
Face like an angel
(In my mirror)
But you’re boned like the devil
Your eyes have shifted from me
Everyone saw what you did
You have slipped from beneath me
Like a false and nervous squid
Oh, no more horses, horses
We’re going to swim like a fish
Into the hole in which you planned to ditch me
My lovely Vera Marie
(I was soaring)
Planned to leave me cold
(A sound)
But you’ll never get your wish
(Feeling appeal)
On the twenty-fourth of May
(Your birthday)
I gather up your reins
You filled me with a vengeance
And you touched me with your breath
I’m gonna pull you from this dance
You’re gonna ride so easily
Oh, no more horses, horses
We’re going to swim like a fish
Into the hole in which you planned to ditch me
My lovely Vera Marie
Hey, come on Vera
Each night I dance
Oh, no more horses, horses
We’re going to swim like a fish
Into the hole in which you planned to ditch me
My lovely Vera Marie
I was your victim
I was well deceived
Hell’s built on regret
But I love your naked neck
And evil lies that you told me
Made me believe you’re two-faced
But there’s two faces have you
And they’re both gonna go
Oh, no more horses, horses
We’re going to swim like a fish
Into the hole in which you planned to ditch me
My lovely Vera Gemini
