Ruby Lyrics

Kristin Hersh Ruby

Everybody was so pretty there
And up and jumping around
And easy, it's easy to sleep
With idiots and prophets

Leaves me wondering, ruby or iridescent cough drop

This baby's like a winter bird, raunchy and sweet
With snowflakes melting in his hair
The boys are supermen

Wondering, ruby or iridescent cough drop

You're the great convincer
Should I do this, am I good?
You can smell a fever
Should I do this, am I good?

Let's dive all the way down, all the way down, ooh

The two of us are old paint
My grandmother's horse
Still alive, still kicking
Not allowed to work

Till we become beauty, a fluid medium
