Peter Murphy - I Spit Roses lyrics

The captain is sea In the moonlight the same The ship all himself Rose Spitter, the name A high mutiny Submerged down and under Shake-shack left you in shock Shed poison with a lover's lock All hands wound and fraught Blow the dark that we thought Oo-oh (I spit roses) Oo-oh (I spit) Shake-shack, ring the bell Pretty, petty, they shall swell Swell kid-like, kid-like squeak Was it a trick or was it treat? Oo-oh (I spit roses) Oo-oh (I spit) The captain is sea In the moonlight the same Reflex us and him He blurts karma, no sin The tall one astute The ginger all things To all men he's kind A split heart from mind I spit roses and thank Oh, the boat we thought sank (Oo-oh) I spit roses (Oo-oh) I spit roses (Oo-oh) I spit roses (Oo-oh) I spit roses (Oo-oh) I spit roses (Oo-oh) I spit roses Roses I spit roses I spit roses (Wall to wall, pillar to post) (I'm back at the task, the task, that I love most) Roses (Wall to wall, pillar to post) (I'm back at the task, the task, that I love most) Roses (I'm back at the task, the task that I love most) Roses
