LYRICS
All through the city on the wings of a dove
Feel sick and dirty with no help from above
Something’s slipping and I’m not in love
A tale of pity and the dirty glove
Let’s go hey ho, how do you go?
How do you get through forty blows?
Hey ho, how do you love?
How do you love a dead dove?
An alcoholic lives above me
Jammin’ on guitar with dirty knees
He crashed my party with swollen eyes
I looked at him, said you’re a fucked up guy
Let’s go hey ho, how do you go?
How do you get through forty blows?
Hey ho, how do you love?
How do you love a dead dove?
He told me the same thing four thousand times
How do you live with death in your mind?
I loved a boy who was an open flower
I looked at him, said you’ve got magic power
Let’s go hey ho, how do you go?
How do you get through forty blows?
Hey ho, how do you love?
How do you love a dead dove?
