Текст песни Carnivore - Liz Phair

Carnivore

(from the Carnivore 7" single)

You′ve told me maybe a thousand times
A smart girl would′ve recognized
There isn′t any business in the street

But some nights, Daddy
I catch you wrapped up tight like a sleeping bag
You′re softly twisting a pinata suspended out of reach

But I know with one good slap
I could take care of that
But who wants to loose the beast of spring?

I guess it started off slow
But it′s picking up speed
And it′s gaining on me
Like a carnivore

Daylight catches me by surprise
Almost every night
And kicks my way another hole to sleep

I guess it started off slow
But it′s picking up speed
And it′s gaining on me
