lyrics

no, don't leave me your esteem
don't give me a bit of your preciousness
flow like a deal
i'll know if it's real
i'm sure i'll find a few new link
even the rain is sharp
like a stain
and you fuck me till i'm insane

breathing the damp through your Havana
my blood is a carbon monoxide nirvana

tell shiva too, but don't aks why
ask the cherry blossom
ask the luscious skies
tell buddha too, but don't ask why
don't ask me why
you don't ask me

hail and death to the soviets
thrill and rage into the top ten of ache
oh, lover, bring me bougainvillea
my wine is douched out of your faith
even the prayes are down
like today
and you suck me till i'm insane

breathing the damp through your Havana
my blood is a carbon monoxide nirvana

tell shiva too, but don't aks why
ask the cherry blossom
ask the luscious skies
tell buddha too, but don't ask why
don't ask me why
you don't ask me

tell shiva too, but don't aks why
ask the cherry blossom
ask the luscious skies
tell shiva too, but don't ask why
don't ask me why
you don't ask me why

tell shiva too, but don't aks why
ask the cherry blossom
ask the luscious skies
tell buddha too, but don't ask why
don't ask me why
you don't ask me why

tell shiva too, but don't aks why
ask the cherry blossom
ask the luscious skies
tell buddha too, but don't ask why
don't ask me why
you don't ask me
