SONIC YOUTH LYRICS - Mary Christ

"Mary Christ"



[Thurston / Kim]

Talking to a punker priest

Just dogging the breeze

About beein in a tree / he says it's free now!

Along comes Mary Christ

Skating light on ice

And says, 'let's go on high' / later, priestoid!

You gotta go - God I got a date now

Yeh I know - shall not be late now



Possessed by x-ray eyes

Her spirit spy's

Into my lies / let's burn 'em out now!

Wraps my head in skin

Says now I'm in

Dig the candy skin / yeh spit it out now!

Everytime - she sings that low song

Everytime - I know I'm right, wrong



Angel in a devil skirt

Buys me a shirt

Says I hope you like / uh, like what now!?

Hope I hope you like

Like you like yr hope

With the tightest rope / I see, I know now!

Here we go - I've been waitin so long

Yeh I know - for Mary to come along

Aaaooooiii
