Lorraine lyrics

Artist  : Jim Carroll 
Song : Lorraine



 Send "Lorraine" Ringtone to your Cell 

 Seven blonde women

They gather in the
square

They raise their hands up to the
sun

Their skin is so thin and white

You know their fathers must surely be
wealthy

I watch the others stand around and
form a crucifix

A serpent of vapor

Some stray birds rise

The one on the
end, the fine one on the end

She called me
over, she pulled me aside

She said, you
know, I have to make it all look different

It seems that every time I lay down

On
it, and it's like a snake in water

And when
I look out of it,

It's like the one from
last week

Was breathing again

And she
said she had some white light

You know, she
said that she had some morphine

But she
didn't have no gimmicks

So she just took
this razor

And she laid it on a white
vein

And then she took a black orchid

And she just ripped apart that flower

And then she took the white light

Then
she said, hey, later for the morphine

She
took the razor and slit open her white vein

She slit open her white vein

She put the
flower through the slit vein

She poured the
white light through the red stem

She put
the white light through the red stem

She
just poured it through the red stem

I was
talkin' with my angel

I was talkin' with my
angel then . . .
