Butthole Surfers, Pepper


Marky got with Sharon.
Sharon got Cherise.
She was sharin' Sharon's outlook on the topic of disease.
Mikey had a facial scar and Bobby was a rapist.
They were all in love with dying, they were doing it in Texas.
Tommy played piano like a kid out in the rain, then he lost his leg in Dallas, he was daincing with a train.

They were all in love with dying, they were drinking from a fountain that was pouring like an avalanche coming down the mountain.


I don't mind the sun sometimes, the images it shows.
I can taste you on my lips and smell you in my clothes
Cinnamon and sugary and softly spoken lies
You never know just how to look through other people's eyes


Some will die in hot pursuit in firey auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit while sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life and drink it from a fountain
that is pouring like an avalanche coming down the mountain.


I don't mind the sun sometimes, the images it shows.
I can taste you on my lips and smell you in my clothes
Cinnamon and sugary and softly spoken lies
You never know just how you look through other people's eyes


Another Mikey took a knife while arguing in traffic
Flipper died a natural death, he caught a nasty virus
Then there was the ever-present football player rapist
They were all in love with dying, they were doing it in Texas
Molly caught a bullet, but it only hit his leg
Wally should have been a better shot, got him in the head

They were all in love with dying, they were drinking from a fountain that was pouring like an avalanche coming down the mountain.


I don't mind the sun sometimes, the images it shows.
I can taste you on my lips and smell you in my clothes
Cinnamon and sugary and softly spoken lies
You never know just how you look through other people's eyes
