lyrics
HER
Brother better watch her
she’s the daughter of a leopard and she’s not very nice.
She kicks and cries and kisses you so nice.
Shoots your guide and stomps off with your life.
It’s too late for me I am sure. But you still have time.
one night in Libramiento
one night in Juarez
one night in Tepetongo
just doing what she says
A lost night in Tacazecas
with nothing close at hand
the wolves came in pursuit of us
we boys grew into men
then one night near the capital
like lions we attacked
the moon had fled behind the hills
and left the world black
one night in bed at home alone
ten nights at home in bed alone
one time with a daughterless
dog in Veracruz
one day before the Armistice
with one night left to lose
One night in the mountains
Carranza was betrayed
took the whole battalion
just to break one of his legs
One night in Connecticut in 1939
they’d speak of it like yesterday if any had survived
what is it that lingers on
when the memory is gone
it’s her
she’s a death despair depth charger
she’s a Titanic disaster
she is fore what you are aft, er
action and adventure
a caramel-crusted nightmare
she’s a big beautiful spider
Bite you won't you hide her,
she’ll reward you, she won't haunt you
thorniest and hornier
Christ, she is Christ in a Chrysler
When the memory is gone
what is it that lingers on
I’m hers
she’s mine
First you hear a purr,
then her laughter
Too late for me I’m sure
you still got time
She’s a kitty in the rafters
a tickle of her whiskers
she’s a search & seizure dancer
she’s a pioneering cancer
Was she there in Cuernavaca?
if you prod her she will answer
Soy la madre of all panthers
and there's nothing real about her
still I swear that she is out there
it is her
it’s her
Brother better watch her
she’s the daughter of a leopard and she’s not very nice.
She kicks and cries and kisses you so nice.
Shoots your guide and stomps off with your life.
It’s too late for me I am sure. But you still have time.
