St. Cecilia

Celia plays my chords in reverse
To the mission then we spray paint the church
She's a poet cause she sings the wrong words
And Celia plays my chords in reverse

Celia paints the void in your soul
Shares with you the things that she stole
She's the cat who finally caught Anatole the mouse
And Celia paints the void in your soul

I did a dance for you called one with the street
Pose for the postcard
Flashed a kid to the beat

I'm glitter in your kiss
A rose we don't grow
A note we don't bow
I'm glitter in your kiss
A life we don't lead
A book we don't read
I'm sending you my strings
Sing this song wrong when you get them

Celia pleads with God to rehearse
Keeps dreams that you let go in her purse
She's a play you understand without words
And Celia pleads with God to rehearse

I did a dance for you called one with the street
Pose for the postcard
Flashed a kid to the beat

I'm glitter in your kiss
A rose we don't grow
A note we don't bow
I'm glitter in your kiss
A life we don't lead
A book we don't read
I'm sending you my strings
Sing this song wrong when you get them
