lyrics

The Chocolate Tree

Can’t tell if I’ve done somethin’ bad
Just kinda looks like the dirt is mad
My minds’ gone weak and thin
And the lilacs they don’t smell like a thing

Oh hole in my heart, what do you need?
I’m right here listening
We both know life is bittersweet
Come on let’s dance up in this chocolate tree

Get up and put your halo on
Fasten it nice and tight
But all you really wanna do is hang out your window
Smokin’ cigarettes and drinkin’ all night

Oh come on by the tracks later on
We can talk about what’s goin’ on
Got my money on an old dapple grey
She taught me how to sing and how to pray

Oh now hole in my heart, what do you need?
I’m right here listening
We both know life is bittersweet
Come on let’s dance up in this chocolate tree

I know you’re hurting real bad
Just a junkie for the moonlight
Gone and tasted things that you can’t have
This old helicopter’s got to take flight

Oh come on by the tracks later on
We can talk about what’s goin’ on
Got my money on an old dapple grey
She taught me how to sing and how to pray
