[Verse 1]
N.C. Em A
She sang with a voice,
Em A
Fresh as a cool mountain river,
Em A Em A
That could wave Madam Butterfly goodbye,

She could cut my wrist,

With a smile like shoeshine,
Em A Em A
While her eyeballs rolling like Stromboli.

Her skin white as snow,

She blew the darkness out of my head,

She could eat tiger balls on toast.

Em A
She was a madness in my life,
Em A
She could walk out of the jungle,
Em A
With her eyelashes,
Em A
Intact,
Em A
Her teeth white as snow,
Em A
They seemed not her own,
Em A Em
She could kill a bull with her flamingo eyes.
A
Cold as ice.
