Pale Lyrics - Kristin Hersh

Before I go to you I never wash my neck 

'Cause when the music starts it goes straight to my head 

And I break out in pale 

You better bring your fork and knife 

Till we see eye to eye 

'Cause I'd rather stuff your face than hear another lie 

Learn to sit still, learn to stay 

I'm as hopped-up with the up and down as you're slow on the uptake 

Under the words is what you heard 

Wait right here for me's exactly what he said 

'Course I'm too busy sitting down 

There are fishes that are stronger than my legs 

Can't wait to drown 

You'd better bring your fucking knife 

Till we see eye to eye 

'Cause I'd rather cut your buttons off than be caught in a lie
