lyrics

I WASHED MY HANDS IN THE MIGHTY MISSISSIPPI, DOWN BY CASINO QUEEN. I WAS CHASING A MURDERER THAT FOR YEARS NO ONE HAD SEEN. SHE WAS BELIEVED TO BE DEAD THEY SAID, BUT I HEARD SHE HEADED SOUTH. THAT NIGHT THIS GIRL SHE CAME DOWN TO MY SHORE, SHE SAID “I’M WHO YOU’RE LOOKIN’ FOR”. SOME HOW SHE KNEW I WAS COMING, SOMEBODY MUST OF SQUEALED, AND SHE KNEW MY WEAKNESS FOR PRETTY GIRLS WITH BOTTLES OF PILLS. SHE SAID “I KNOW WHY YOU’RE HERE MY DEAR, AND THAT’S NOT GONNA FLY, BUT IF YOU PROMISE THAT YOU’LL WALK AWAY I’LL MAKE YOU A VERY HAPPY GUY”. OH MY MY, OH HELL YES, I WAS KIDNAPPED BY THE GIRL IN THE PARTY DRESS. YEAH, BUT I DIDN’T MIND. NO, WE HAD A GOOD TIME. WE WERE UNDER THE ARCH IN ST. LOUIS. THERE WERE NO SAINTS IN ST. LOUIS. THERE WERE NO SAINTS TO SAVE US.

I'm sad to see this era of Beastmaker close out but this is a phenomenal way to do! Black Butterfly might be the best thing they've ever done. dianonhead
