Jeffrey Lewis - The Upside-Down Cross lyrics

My wife Ilene and I My wife Ilene and I We embarked on a trip to Florida We were trying to save our marriage and a manatee Well sometimes we wouldn't speak for a week Their bloody bodies would wash up on the beach We paddled out on anything that would float We threw the rocks at the people in their white power boats My girl, the sweet Lenore My girl, the sweet Lenore We embarked on a trip to Algeria We thought it was for the cause We planted bombs they wouldn't even see We were trying to oust the dirty French army We ran and ran and hid by a cross We fell in love as the blasts went off Then one day she said it was over But I didn't buy 'cos we weren't sober I said, "Please don't leave me, I need you girl I need yr help to save this world." Oh, I went to Kansas City with a lady friend Yeah, I went to Kansas City with a lady friend We were up in Des Moins from Round the Bend yeah I went to Kansas City with a lady friend We dug in crazy love, deep drit ground An Elevator fell it didn't make a sound Now it's heart of silver came raining down It was dark and gritty in Kansas City Then one day she said it was over But I didn't buy 'cos we weren't sober I said, "Please don't leave me, I need you girl I need yr help to save this world."
