She spent twenty years in the Dakota
Every single day it was black in the Dakota
Riot grrrls think you can stop me
And you're forever in her debt
Well I know you haven't saved me
And you haven't saved her yet

She spent twenty years like a virus
They want to burn the witches inside us
Well you, you don't fuck with the fabulous four
Or you'll spend the rest of your life
Picking things up off the floor

She's still alive but I am sure
That all the stars belong to her
I can't afford the king-sized bed
She's wrapped in rags inside my head

There's this story, there's this story
Of someone's wife
Big black pools in her whole life
I don't remember, I forget

Oh, baby dry your dirty eyes
My water breaks like turpentine
The pee girl burns to be a bride
Your ever lovely suicide

Hey...ah
Hey... ah
Are they coming for me
Are they coming soon
Hey Jude, 
Hey Jude,
Are they coming for me
Judy, Judy are they coming soon
I don't remember, I forget
The pee girl burns to be a bride
Your ever lovely suicide
And on, and on, and on, and on...
I don't remember, I forget
