lyrics

Sing her a song, she’ll love it
Tell her I’m an idiot
For days and days I tried to get Suzanne out of my head
What did her father tell me when he lay on his death bed
"Son, I won’t give her away not until my dying day"

Sigmund told her: never free the animal
All the lonely boys will have to wait
Climb in there and be the human cannonball
The circus clowns will take the fire escape

Write her a poem, she’ll dig it
Tell her I’m a copycat
For days and days I wondered whether Jesus really bled
What did her mother tell me when hooked up to an IV line
You can plan ahead and pray but you could be dead in 39 days

Sigmund told her: never free the animal
All the lonely boys will have to wait
Climb in there and be the human cannonball
The circus clowns will take the fire escape

On the day I met Suzanne she held out her hands
Said: "you’ll never leave me now and if you do, tell me how?"
I saw the tan line from a ring, made me start to think
When I asked her ‘bout the gown it all came tumbling down

The thing is I saw you with a gun in your hand
And you hid the bullets in the drawer with your underwear
With a photo of a guy who looked just like me

I think you blew his head off Suzanne
I think you blew his head off Suzanne
I think you blew his head off Suzanne

And now that you’re calmed down you make me nervous
I think I’ll be miles away at sunrise, you will have to track me down
