when the arrogant goddess of love came to steal my shoes
G F C G
she had a white hot pistol and a homemade heart tattoo
F C G
singing one’s to give and one’s to take away
F C G
but neither of them will keep you off your knees
F C G
the children bowed and bolted off the stage
F C G
while the lion and the lamb kept fighting for the shade tree

G F C G
when the winsome god of war came to set me free
G F C G
he had a couple of coke bottles full of gasoline
F C G
singing all i love is all that i allow
F C G
and he blew me a kiss of a big burned hand
F C G
i nearly choked with smoke and fell down
F C G
while the lion and the lamb kept shooting at a tin can

when the gun shy goddess of love came back to patch things up

she had a purple heart and mother’s milk in a plastic cup

singing one’s to lay you gently in the grave

and one’s the flag you fold before you go
F C G
when the curtain rose the crowd was blown away
F C G
while the lion and the lamb kept fxxking in the back row
