Margot and the Nuclear So & So's
SONG: Skeleton Key
ALBUM: The Dust in Retreat
I did a sick, sick thing to my love.
My lack of loyalty, it swallowed her up.
And she cooks me food.
She squirmed and turned like a skeleton key.
She left her man unattended to me.
Don't call me that.
Don't claim you love me
cause you know that ain't true.
My dire affliction a tribute to you
And you're finally free
to twist and turn like a skeleton key.
You've gotta let me know.
You've gotta let me know.
I did a horrible thing to that girl.
I bread my misery and drowned it in her.
And she got me high,
And I hardly noticed there were tears in her eyes.
And I miss you less and less everyday.
This stream of whisky helps to wash you away.
And it's clear to see,
You're nothing special.
You're a skeleton key.
A (played with "Riff A")(see below)
You've gotta let me know.
A (player with "Riff A")
You've gotta let me know.
A (player with "Riff A")
You've gotta let me know.
A (player with "Riff A")
You've gotta let me know.
Whooo!
