“A country boy gets in way over his head with a girl completely out of his world—and loves every minute of it.”
Lyrics
Her eyes are red like cherries
Her lips are charcoal black
There’s a couple of dead canaries
tattooed across her back
There’s metal in her eyebrow
Her hair’s as green as a Douglas Fir
My momma like to had a cow
when I fell in love with her
Half her head is shaven down
where you can see her pulse
And she can quote "The Raven"
better than all them other girls
They used to call her Sara, but she said that was lame
Now we all live in terror of
mispronouncing her Wiccan name
Mysti Dethblossom
My blood moon ball and chain
Man, that girl's so awesome once you get past the fangs
She’s my two-toned headstone cheater - purple cobweb fishnet bride
And I’d love for you to meet her, but she don’t go outside
Who’s that playin’ possum with this love sick country boy
Mysti Dethblossom
My undead pride and joy
Well she met me at some county fair
You can imagine my response
She was dressed up like a clown, I swear, I never heard of the Renaissance
But with a big plume in my Stetson, blood Redwings and a switchblade knife
She dubbed me the "Earl of Galveston"
Now I’ll be scarred for life
Mysti Dethblossom
My blood moon ball and chain
Whisp’ry breath of Gotham
Holy black-hearted flame
We mix doom and gloom with sappy, a Disney Cruise with the Manson Trial
And I know I can make her happy, ‘cause she don’t never smile
Now, who’s that playin’ ‘possum with this love sick country boy
Mysti Dethblossom
My undead pride and joy
Waist deep in the counter-culture
Dixie devil without a cause
And she bought me a turkey vulture just to play with my huntin’ dogs
When I asked her of she’d wear my ring, she told me that’s a sin
Forever ani’t forever unless you carve it in your skin
Mysti Dethblossom
My blood moon ball and chain
The high priestess of goth in a manufactured house of pain
And we’ve got pretty crocheted dragon’s wings
And home grown chicken bones
And all them other little things that make a house a home
Now, who’s that playin’ ‘possum with this love sick country boy
Mysti Dethblossom
My undead pride and joy
Mysti Dethblossom
