Honey I'm a roller concrete clover - Tadzio, Tadzio
Arm wrestle your mother, simply over - Tadzio, over you
But beware my heart can be a pin, a sharp silver dragonfly
Trying to get my mansions green, after I've Grey Gardens seen
In between tonight and my tomorrows
Tadzio, where have you been?
In between tonight, I know it's Tadzio
Tadzio, don't you fight
Honey can you hear me, in between been dragging a dragonfly
Trying to get my mansions green, after I've Grey Gardens seen
Honey won't you hold me tight, get me through Grey Gardens tonight
Tadzio, Tadzio, Tadzio, Tadzio
Trying to get my mansions green, after I've Grey Gardens seen
Honey won't you hold me tight, get me through Grey Gardens tonight
Tadzio, Tadzio, Tadzio, Tadzio
Tadzio, Tadzio... |  |
