I'll call you sister Carrie but I'll never say it
|
Mute it to a whisper
|
And spin your solar sister
|
And magnet will deliver
|
An arrow from her quiver
|
|
I'll call you sister Carrie but you'll never hear it
|
Fifty minutes later
|
As time pulls down her fader
|
And nibbles off the fakers
|
Who roll under the breakers
|
|
I'll close my eyes and listen to you read the story
|
Knowing I'll soon be left behind
|
So won't you read sister Carrie Jean, sister Carrie
|
Always the patient one
|
|
I'll call you sister Carrie I won't breathe a word
|
Frosting on the beater
|
The flag trips down the meter
|
You thought you could defeat her
|
You're lucky you could meet her
|
|
I'll close my eyes and listen to you read the story
|
But I'm already far behind
|
So won't you read sister Carrie Jean, sister Carrie
|
Always the patient one
|
|
I'll close my life and let you teach me a new story
|
Out of the pages of your mind
|
And magnet will deliver
|
So, spin, my solar sister
|
|
And you can read, sister Carrie, read...
