Current mood: vehement
I just bought Frank's newest two (I had to order them from the UK at like $25 a pop, sweet jesus!) and thought I would revisit his two earlier albums (I'm not a huge fan of the whole country swing he went on there.) This song stuck out.

Song : You Can't Crucify Yourself
Album : Fast Man/Raider Man
Artist : Frank Black

While I sit and think of another song that we can sing
You can fret and think of another wrong I did bring
And I can't move the sun, babe, to make you shine
I'm the only one who can say that this light is mine

I think I'll close my eyes while you snap,
"Where's my map,"
I think I'll go
And did you know
You can't crucify yourself,
No, that takes two
Maybe you could use some help
And if you do
Just say you do

Every pickle comes from cucumber
You don't have to act appalled
Where's my door and where is my number
I'm lost in these halls

And I'm not saying I don't like your carrion
But your preacher's pride is just like Marion

And when I felled a bird
Then you'd laugh at your half
That you let rot
Now doll here's a thought

You can't crucify yourself
No, that takes two
Maybe you could use some help
And if you do
Just say you do

You can't crucify yourself
Now that takes two
Maybe you could use some help
And if you do
Just say you do
