Magdalena sits in her chair 
speaking on the mass 
she talks in splice and splinters 
she laughs not breaking glass 
she said that she would have me 
spirit her away 
stealing all my images 
till there`s nothin` left to say 

oh, magdalena 
nothing like the saint you are 
your love is like a razor 
my heart is just a scar 
oh, magdalena 
nothing like the saint you are 

she tells me that she wants me 
then she tells me not to bother 
she tells me that I couldn`t hold 
a candle to her father 
she knows that she`s got me 
when I start to rave about 
she`ll justsmile and flash her eyes 
and blow the candle out 

oh, magdalena 
oh, ho, ho, magdalena 
nothing like the saint you are 

magdalena lying there 
could make a dancer stumble 
make a preacher bite his tongue 
and leave him with a mumble 
and if you think I`m crazy babe 
or that I`m kiddin` you 
just pay your dues and lose your blues 
when she gets her tongue in you 

oh, magdalena 
nothing like the saint you are 
your love is like a razor 
my heart is just a scar 
oh, magdalena 
nothing like the saint you are 

well, I can`t be forgotten 
and I can`t be ignored 
you find me with my poems 
and my songs 
but if upon your journey you`re turning to l.a. 
won`t you take this little red-haired girl aong? 

oh, magdalena 
nothing like the saint you are 
your love is like a razor 
my heart is just a scar 
oh, magdalena 
nothing like the saint you are
