The Ruby Ring Man lyrics

in my wet dog sky of blue
I could see you at the gate
in the red eye dawning you
where you always sit and wait
for the passing of the broken heart parade

I would kiss the devil's cheek to get this halo off of me
and in my twisted afterlife you would be my family tree
and we'll both walk around with our tails between our legs

we can rattle our pans at the game my dear
but the ruby ring man doesn't know we're here
I thought he knew my name
strange he wouldn't even look my way

someone got their fingerprints on my happy ending song
Christ and all his ruby rings told me I should hang it up
because I lie so well I even start to buy it too

I lie so well I even start to buy it too

when the trumpet swings my ears start to bleed
I'm hanging upside down in a famous tree
I saw so many things
oh this color's new and beautiful to me
