Go and get your drugs, honey, go and get your drugs
I am fond of those things too, some of them so much
Give away my whole life to 'em, give away my bed
Come about on some strange couch just wishing that I were dead
Ashley hitched from Houston she was raped in Abilene
Beaten with a bottle as the night laid mute her screams
When she finally reached here she was happy as can be
There's a bright light shining in the big blue sky and I never know what it means
And I can't help singing dirges on the ides of every month
Heaven is a chandelier, but don't all look up at once
I go down to the park to give away my cigarettes
I go down to the park where I sit and wait for death
But I can't wait forever with the breezes and the bums
The soldiers came to shoot us down but Jesus jammed the guns
And when the bottles all were empty, he called us to our feet
He promised us salvation and some real nice things to eat,
We were good then 'til the morning when daylight did us in
Oh the past it picked our pretty little pockets, it gets thirsty for revenge
And I can't help singing dirges on the ides of every month
Heaven is a chandelier, but don't all look up at once
Oh I can't help singing dirges on the ides of every month
Heaven is a chandelier, but don't all look up at once

Being a fan of this Portland band reminds me of being a music collector before the internet. It's actually difficult to track down their material! Dylan McNamee
