Donkeys lyrics
by James Dean Bradfield
[Verse 1]
Put some lipstick on
At least your lies will be pretty
A shadow on my face
And us donkeys wake up weary
Sweating and sickly
Donkeys don't allow their tears
No emotion never feel
And drown themselves in whatever
[Chorus 1]
Find some meaning
Donkeys weight cracking a spine
[Verse 2]
Sweetness bent double
Whole days making polite
Never moving out of turn
Or even trying to be natural
Those with silence inside
Eyes bare p*ss holes in the snow
Drained and burnt yellow
And sunk in self-pity
[Chorus 2]
Jerusalem sawn off
Donkeys are only left with lies
Are only left with lies
[Instrumental Outro]
[Guitar Solo]
