The Darkest Childe Lyrics

Sophie B. Hawkins The Darkest Childe

You can do it baby
You know you can do it baby

You were always the darkest childe
Making all the grown ups sweat
Driving both your parents to distraction
With the sweetness in your head

You?re the one who raped your superintendent
On the rooftop tied his hands and feet to the fence
You sucked his cock and f..cked the man immobile
You paid your daddy?s rent

You are the darkest childe
You spread your angel wings
And fly through the night into the dreams
Of ancient ruins and make them sing

Lost lover shameless girl
Bury me in your sultry curls
I?m in the wilderness alone

Let me kiss you until the dawn
Let me put your wild things on
I?ve been howling in the fog so long

You are the darkest childe
You have a sacred duty to perform upon this blessed earth
You must cradle those thoughts of the lustful lonely
Inside your wicked warmth and you must get off

You are the darkest childe and evil will never stop you
And people will mock you and try to pop, pop, pop you
Into the market place where you cannot be bought
Understood you will be missed there will be sadness
For the darkest childe

So long

Lost lover shameless girl
Bury me in your sultry curls
I?m in the wilderness alone

Let me kiss you until the dawn
Let me put your wild things on
I?ve been howling in the fog so long

So long to the darkest childe
Waiting in patient anguish
For the scent of someone?s wilderness
To howl against the smog screen
Of accolade smoothies

Goose bump burgers and Christ like fries
How long can this world keep f..cking itself up the ass
Wonders never cease
How long would it have to be anyway

Long enough to cause hysteria
Wide enough to cause great pain
I am in the wilderness alone

Oh God

Let me kiss you until the dawn
Let me put your wild things on
I?ve been howling in the fog so long

Lost lover shameless girl
Bury me in your sultry curls
I?m in the wilderness alone

Let me kiss you until the dawn
Let me put your wild things on
I?ve been howling in the fog so long

Lost lover shameless girl
Bury me in your sultry curls
I?m in the wilderness

So long
So long
So long
