Coroner, as October sees the leaves turn colors You're so much older than when we first met each other Down in southern Cali and the pounding pattern Drum of pumping blood was sounding Even though the subject was too young All I need is one night to see if it's right You can cut me like streetlights with the sunrise All I ask is one night to know if it's right We can scatter like ashes when the cock cries On an autumn morning like this I sit and watch the shadows of birds on bricks Think words to warm the marrow of this feral woman Pharaoh Turning twenty-five on the twenty-sixth All I need is one night to see if it's right We can scatter like ashes when the cock cries All I ask is one night to know if it's right You can cut me like streetlights with the sunrise
