Black Tambourine

Black hearts in effigy We sing a song that was hated All dressed in rag and bones Sharks smell the blood that I'm bleeding I know there's something wrong Might take a fire to kill it Might take a hurricane Don't know what life that I'm livin' Oh oh oh Black tambourine Oh oh oh Black tambourine My baby run to me She lives in broken down buildings Can't pay the rent again These spider webs are my home now And when the sun is down We'll shake and rattle our bodies To keep it warm at night My tambourine is still shaking Oh oh oh Black tambourine Oh oh oh Black tambourine Black hearts in effigy We sing a song that was hated All dressed in rag and bones Sharks smell the blood that I'm bleeding I know there's something wrong Might take a fire to kill it Might take a hurricane Don't know what life that I'm livin' Black tambourine Oh oh oh Black tambourine --- Black Tambourine - Beck
