Lonesome Organist Rapes Page Lyrics - Singles - The Dresden Dolls

He told me that I knew what to laugh at 

And I wanted to but I just couldn't ask if he would take it back so I could know for certain 

So on the bench I watched his left hand crossing 

While doubling entendres with the voicings 

He said "O darling, you're charming 

Please don't find it alarming if I pull this stop out to free up a hand for heavy petting" 

 

Now there there 

I'm a friendly man 

I joke about sex because it's funny when you're frightened 

 

So silently I sat and turned the pages 

Recalculating our respective ages 

Over my shoulder, he muttered, "If I get any older 

You can hack my wrists off with your choice of objects 

No, I'm kidding" 

 

Don't be scared 

I'm a friendly man 

I joke about death because it's funny when you're frightened 

 

This is as far as I could get 

He jabbed a needle in my neck 

Erasing all the evidence 

But there were matchsticks in my pants 

And if a rock should hit my head 

And I remember what he did 

You'll be the very first to know 

Maybe I'll find out why this damn thing won't stop bleeding 

 

He told me that I showed a great potential 

That given I turned heads and pages 

Fame would be a piece of cake 

But practice was essential 

So like a stupid child I believed it 

And golly who would had agreed if 

I had been Schubert or Mozart 

Devoted to the fine art of perfecting absolutely everything inconsequential 

 

Don't be sad 

I'll come back again 

I joke about trash 'cause it takes class to be enlightened 

 

So several decades have gone by 

I am still sitting by his side 

I turn the pages faithfully 

He turns his head and smiles at me 

And with a wink he says, "I doubt 

We would be anywhere without 

Your gift for keeping truth and consequence from meeting"
