There's a black dog beneath my skin Eyeless, grinning So I met a nun and a mystic At the fork in the road They said "Your child is behind you Wet hair, painted toes There are smugglers, jugglers A bear on its chain Wear bluebells in your hat If you're going that way" Uh-huh What does it mean then? It's all just a dream then (By the time I woke up) Cough syrup and amphetamines We could sleep under the evergreens I'm a little saint, I'm a little sinner Every day you're looking better ♪ Words were written on the walls My white blood in capitals Well, I spoke to the captain He won't turn around He said "The sun is an orange And the wind's just the sound Of our brothers and sisters Lovers and those that we'll never know" Uh-huh, uh-huh ♪ I am no leader I'm just a soldier And they're going door to door But I can't fight anymore ♪ Cough syrup and amphetamines We could sleep under the evergreens I'm a little saint, I'm a little sinner Every day I'm looking thinner ♪ (There is evil in)
