Poisonous Garden Lyrics by Concrete Blonde

Poisonous Garden Lyrics

    The stars above shine down below
    The fever you hold on this night
    Deathly cold
    I can feel from this side of the door
    I can feel eleanor

    He said, sun don't rise...
    He said sun don't shine
    He said don't bring tomorrow
    To justify tonight
    The moon is full - the stars are bright
    And the sky is a poisonous garden
    Tonight.

    Sip your tequila. give me some time
    To unlearn all i've learned for the
    Spring to unwind
    And then came your sweet gentle mouth
    I began to move mine.
    They knew with the dawn -
    They knew with the day
    They knew what they had
    Would be young naked prey
    And attacked from all sides
    By a world filled with
    Poison and hate

    Eleanor trembles, eleanor moans.
    Somehow, this body is someone
    She always has known
    She cries tears on his chest
    O so silent and slow -

    She said please don't do. please don't go -
    And she cried and she died in his arms
    And he cried nevermore
    The moon is full, the stars are bright
    And the sky is a poisonous garden
    Tonight.
