Killjoy
AJOR 1998 (Ontario)
Killjoy
Sing for me a song of love
A song for days dancing in the wet
Blessing the sour rain from above
Killjoy
Dance for me a dance of sex
Of semen pouring from my phallus
While reciting Oedipus Rex
Killjoy
Sing for me a song of songs
As it is written in that bible
Indulging in your many wrongs
Killjoy
Sing for me
I need Bitter harmony
Sing for me
Killjoy
Killjoy
Dance for us
We need your tranquillity
Dance for me
Killjoy
