Did Me Wrong - CocoRosie

Black and white, whole universe

White and black, paddywhack

Paddy cake, what’s my little baby’s fate?

Saw her name on the grave, didn’t even misbehave

Never got to be a lover slave

Save her letters and her tears

Bad luck, broken mirrors

Daddy didn’t want a queer, more than CIA he feared

Brittany speared, made a monster, hiding in the zoo

Ate the keeper, singing opera, there was nothing left to do

I say hello and you’ve got me all aflame

You say mellow and my water’s cool again

You say come on and my heart is beating fast

You say get off, get me off before I crash

Talk me down low, to the ground

I’m feeling blue, I never knew a love like this

I recognized his faceless face

Like a wound that won’t erase

Like a tomb for me to groom

Switchin' on my granny’s broom

This house I kept sheen and swept

He meant no harm

But boy did he do me wrong

Boy you did me wrong

But boy you get me off

Boy you did me wrong

But boy you get me off

And so it goes

Another horror show of vows

Begotten, love forgotten

Side of the road, smashed up like kill

Love not to feel

Drag me up off the floor

One last dance, another chance is stolen

Heart shot

Momma’s all «baby girl»

Praying for daddy to come home

Handed down blues, every shade, every hue

I beg our lady for the new

'Cause there’s nothing left to do

I say hello and you’ve got me all aflame

You say mellow and my water’s cool again

You say come on and my heart is beating fast

You say get off

Boy you get me off

Boy you get me off

Boy you get me off

Boy you get me off
