The Dresden Dolls - Bitter lyrics

a dirty deed is brewing green ivy overgrowing the scissors poised and ready and she said that she was going a thousand hours of waiting she put it all in writing she pricked her finger for it but she's not cooperating oh i swear by the river styx that's where i am fixed. but i think the time is nearing i think i might be thawing if only i were certain that my temperature weren't falling and the tourists have been coming from my fingers sawing pieces for exhibits where impressive crowds are drawing oh i swear by the river styx that's where i am that's where that's where i am i am fixed and if i had the patience and i had the humor and you had the slightest clue what all this fuss was for all of the times that i say that ill do it there's 909 that i secretly ruin its good that i tell you what i am escaping for over the rainbow and out through the back door if only i could prove it if only i could do it if only i could torture all the people who can use it and at the final hour i am forced to sit and gather the thousand hours of inspiration slowly growing sour oh i swear by the river styx that's where i am that's where that's where i am i am fixed and if i had an offer to be better id decline and if it were more awful to consider id be fine and if it were all my fault that i'm that i'm that i'm that i'm and i've pined and i've regretted that i aided and abetted this end and if it isn't it will be soon you bet it will be and the tapes are in the fire go to bed because i'm tired of saying it is done because i've always been a liar .....and if it were all my fault that i'm bitter....
