SIOUXSIE & THE BANSHEES























DAZZLE

swallowing diamonds a cutting throat
your teeth when you grin reflecting beams on tombstones

a jamboree of surprises
playing russian roulette or the lucky clip
a clenched fist to your heart
coal dust on your lungs
a silver tongue for the chosen one

heavy magnum in your side or a bloody thorn
skating bullets on angel dust
in a dead sea of fluid mercury
baby piano cries under your heavy index and thumb

pull some strings -- let them sing
the stars that shine and the stars that shrink
in the face of stagnation the water runs before your eyes
dazzle

it's a glittering prize
