Artist/Band: Peter Murphy
Lyrics for Song: I Spit Roses
Lyrics for Album: Ninth [2011]



The captain is sea

In the moonlight the same

The ship all himself

Rose Spitter, the name

A high mutiny

Submerged down and under

Shake-shack left you in shock

Shed poison with a lover's lock

All hands wound and fraught

Blow the dark that we thought



Ooo-ooh ooo-ooh (I spit roses)

Ooo-ooh ooo-ooh (I spit)



Shake-shack, ring the bell

Pretty, petty, they shall swell

Swell kid-like, kid-like squeak

Was it a trick or was it treat?



Ooo-ooh ooo-ooh (I spit roses)

Ooo-ooh ooo-ooh (I spit)



The captain is sea

In the moonlight the same

Reflex us and him

He blurts karma, no sin

The tall one astute

The ginger all things

To all men he's kind

A split heart from mind

I spit roses and thank

Oh, the boat we thought sank



(Ooo-ooh ooo-ooh) I spit roses

(Ooo-ooh ooo-ooh) I spit roses

(Ooo-ooh ooo-ooh) I spit roses

(Ooo-ooh ooo-ooh) I spit roses

Roses

I spit roses

I spit roses (Wall to wall, pillar to post)

(I'm back at the task, the task, that I love most)

Roses (Wall to wall, pillar to post)

(I'm back at the task, the task, that I love most)

Roses (I'm back at the task, the task that I love most)

Roses
