Sonic Youth — Mary-Christ lyrics

Lyrics

Talking to a punker priest
Just dogging the breeze
About beein in a tree / he says it’s free now!
Along comes Mary Christ
Skating light on ice
And says, 'let's go on high' / later, priestoid!
You gotta go — God I got a date now
Yeh I know — shall not be late now
Possessed by x-ray eyes
Her spirit spy’s
Into my lies / let’s burn 'em out now!
Wraps my head in skin
Says now I’m in Dig the candy skin / yeh spit it out now!
Everytime — she sings that low song
Everytime — I know I’m right, wrong
Angel in a devil skirt
Buys me a shirt
Says I hope you like / uh, like what now?!
Hope I hope you like
Like you like yr hope
With the tightest rope / I see, I know now!
Here we go — I’ve been waitin so long
Yeh I know — for Mary to come along
Aaaooooiii
