Big Burned Hand Songtext / Lyric

When the arrogant goddess of love

Came to steal my shoes

She had a white-hot pistol

And a homemade heart tattoo



Saying one's to give and one's to take away

But neither of them will keep you off your knees

The children bowed and bolted off the stage

While the lion and the lamb kept fighting for the shade tree






And the ransom god of war

Came to set me free

He had a couple of cold bottles

Full of gasoline



Saying all I love is all that I allow

You blew me a kiss of a big burned hand

I nearly choked with smoke and fell down

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



Saying he loves to lay you gently in the grave

He loves the flag you fold before you go

When the curtain rolls, the crowd is blown away

While the lion and the lamb kept fucking in the back road
