Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Yeah, said I came from midnight just to sing my song

So come on! (Come on)

Girl, my magic is sweet and the spell last long

I said so long (So long)

I've been walking over thorns and it's raining frogs

Right on, said right on! (Right on)

I've been out beyond the valley of the dawn

Don't get me wrong (No, don't get it wrong)

[Chorus]

My pedigree and debauchery is my claim to fame

This profane prophecy has got me in its sweet embrace

So I sing my lovesick blues and sip my sour grapes

Hoping that someday soon I get to see your pretty face

[Verse 2]

Well, I slept all night in a hollow log

Hoo (Hoo, hoo)

I took the meat out the mouth of a rabid dog (Who's that?)

I took one but I needed two more (Two more, three more)

I eat casino breakfast off the kitchen floor

Yeah, want some more? (For sure!)

[Chorus]

My pedigree and debauchery is my claim to fame

This profane prophecy has got me in its sweet embrace

So I sing my lovesick blues and sip my sour grapes

Hoping someday soon I get to see your pretty face

[Bridge]

Oh, I said lawdy, lawdy, lawdy, girl, said what's got into you?

Is this the French Revolution, or do you just got the blues?

[Chorus]

My pedigree and debauchery is my claim to fame

This profane prophecy has got me in its sweet embrace

So I sing my lovesick blues and sip my sour grapes

Hoping that someday soon I get to see your pretty face

[Outro]

So pretty, oh

But not pretty

[Outro]

Pound of feathers or a pound of lead

Pound of feathers or a pound of lead

Pound of feathers or a pound of lead

Pound of feathers or a pound of lead

Pound of feathers or a pound of lead

Pound of feathers or a pound of lead
