The Melting Of The Sun

So sorry, missed the party Hello, on the dark side of the moon Jane lost it, crashed her corvette Ran into the tide in Malibu And we all heard the gun But I was slow to run It's just the melting of the sun (It's just the sun) I wanna watch you watch it burn (So watch it burn) Saint Joni ain't no phony Smoking reds where Furry sang the blues My Marilyn shot her heroin "Hell," she said, "It's better than abuse" So who am I trying to be? A benzo beauty queen? It's just the melting of the sun (It's just the sun) I wanna watch you watch it burn (So watch it burn) We always knew this day would come (The day has come) It's just the melting of the sun Brave Tori told her story Police said they couldn't catch the man Proud Nina got subpoenaed Singing "Mississippi good goddamn" But me, I never cried To tell the truth, I lied Girl, the world's spinning 'round Spinning down and out of time Girl, you can't give in now When you're down, down and out Girl, the world's spinning 'round Spinning down and out of time Girl, you can't give in now When you're down, down and out --- The Melting of the Sun - St. Vincent
