lyrics

When you’re a happy young drunk,
you will marry a moment
should the moment propose
Some permanent ink or a hole and a hoop in your
nose.
Your mom said, “I had me an inkling.
It was a matter of time.
Four generations ago,
we had one in the line.”
They called her a bodywriter
called it the devil dwelling inside her,
finally sent her away and denied her.
They’ll call you a bodywriter.
it’s not your style, it’s your tribe, dear.
You couldn’t stop if you tried dear.
When you are sober and old
and your skin is still singing
Of the blood and the vow
I’ll still say whatever I went anyway, anyhow.
