Everybody Loves You When You're Dead lyrics
Song information
Artist: Wild Strawberries Album: Heroine
Lyrics
She told me her name was cymbeline I met her at the corner of church and queen She was selling lies and other painted things I hardly even noticed when she touched my ring
She sold me a camera for a song A silver instamatic made in bonn Careful with my heart it's not very strong She wrote that on the border when I was gone
She said that she's going home And she won't be long Half a mile from texas She looked at me and said Everybody wants you when you're dead
I can drive for hours when I'm wrong She said it like a preacher before the throng Careful with your life--it's not very long We struggle for a moment and then we're gone
I think I'll take her bishop with my queen The glass is nearly empty and she's asleep Somewhere in my mind I think I see her weep Perhaps I'll check the silver before I leave
