Your prettiness is seeping through Out from the dress I took from you So pretty (from you) And my emptiness is swollen shut Always a wretch - I have become So empty And please, please don't leave me I'm watching Naomi, full bloom I'm hoping she will soon explode Into one billion tastes and tunes One billion angels come and hold her down They could hold her down until she shines I'm tasting Naomi's perfume It tastes like shit and I must say She comes and goes most afternoons One billion lovers wave and love her now They could love her now and so could I There is no Naomi in view She walks through Cambridge stocks and strolls And if she only really knew One billion angels could come and save her soul They could save her soul Until she shines Until she shines Until she shines Until she shines Until she shines So pretty So pretty So pretty So pretty And please, please don't leave me
Fwiw, I still listen to it at least monthly and heard Song Against Sex on my local college radio station recently during morning rush hour. Made me smile!
This song, like Hey by the Pixies and I Will Buy You a New Life, creeps me the hell out, by their subject matter. But they are songs my mom and I listened to. Hope you’re doing well and stay safe. 🤍
Damn say joints instead of songs is so fucking cool. I just woke up from a thirty year coma and that’s such cool slang. Like that black director that is a the Knicks what’s the name of that movie he just released the one where they make fun of Puerto Ricans. He cools his movies joints and I’m sure he hasn’t turned out to be a cringey dork.
Amazing what I would give just to even talk to Jeff Mangum in email So much as talk to him verbally or meet him. He's so awesome. THIS is so awesome. I never knew this song was written about you. I'd give anything to meet the band.
