lyrics

DESPERATION MAMBO
Throw me out with the bad lovers, throw me out with the alcohol
Throw me out with the scary monsters, check me out I’m not scared at all
Throw me out with the dirty water, throw me out it’s the shoe that fits
Throw me out you’re a politician, throw me out before it turns to shit
Maybe you will be amazed when I return from the war…and I’ll have stories

Throw me out I’m the diva-donna, throw me out while the cameras blink
Throw me out I’m a wishya wanna. Do my hair so I don’t have to think
Throw me out I think I found religion, throw me out and say your last goodbye
Check it out I have a new relation, my heavens flag is flying in the sky
Maybe you will be amazed when I return from the war…and I’ll have stories
Throw me out with the desperation, mambo upon my grave
Throw me out I’m an unwed mother, you can’t spend who you can’t save
Throw me out with the bad lovers, Throw me out with the alcohol
Throw me out with the wild wonder, don’t be afraid to delete it all
