Everybody wanna know my name, I give just a sliver to them. That’s the way I’ve been taught I am. Any day, Any way, I drive a fifth before 3pm. Little girl with a buck knife and a fake ID. Sleeping bag and a back pack in the big city. Now tell me why, well don’t it look like, I’m always crying. You try to hide, when you’re high Baby I know you’re lying. Well it’s a hawk moon, and it’s just begun to rise. Here’s a silver spoon, So you can gouge out both your eyes. I couldn’t believe them when they said Watch out I’m becoming the kind of girl They warned me about. And you’ll never know the way I miss Miss Jonathan, She was beaten in the street and then I never saw her again. She opened up my mind in the holes of Her fishnet tights. Dildo waving on her car antenna, And I coulda ridden shot gun forever. She’d say Oh baby, where do you wanna go? I know a place no one will ever know. Well it’s a hawk moon, and it’s just begun to rise. Here’s a silver spoon you can eat your heart out As a prize. I couldn’t believe them when they’d say Watch out I’m becoming the kind of girl They warned me about. #hurrayfortheriffraff #thepastisstillalive #hawkmoon
