Song

Marmalade

System of a Down

Toxicity, 1998, English

Lyrics

Pick up to six lines to make a card.

Stretching, filing
Against her skin
Blessed are those
Who are not kin
In sin we breathe
In sex we tie
Duct tape her legs
To the red sky
Foolsome flesh allowances
The pansies raided the pantry of
Gabardine dreams, promiscuous
Delight, deny not the flavor
Custard dreams
Abusing, musing
Marmalade flesh
Naked spread am I (am I)
Actors of the tragic fanthom
Extend your legs for great saturn
Brown table tops scream for cover
At the sight of your new lover
If today i die
And can't deny
The poison chosen
For tonight (tonight)
Borrowed dreams
Hollowed reveries
Metal pillows
Pewter yellows
Furry roadkill
House on the hill
Pouring gravy
On her thighs still
If today i die
And can't deny
The poison chosen
For tonight (tonight)
