silly ghost

spirit, away!
down with diamonds in
your pin in your hair,
you silly reflection, you silly ghost of a nothinggirl
......
paint your eyes
and rouge your lips
as red as the cherriest cherry
but behold just a silly ghost
of a nothinggirl

soul, fly!
soulfly.
pretty little honeychild all dressed up
nowhere to go
nowhere to hide
stranded in the middle of a crowded empty room....
......
spinningspinningspinning
down she goes, flat as a pattycake
on her pretty painted face
owowow

staring into the mirror, icepack on her nose
her little cute button
of what we call a nose...
staring into the eyes of that silly ghost
of a nothinggirl.

    I know, I know... I wasn't charging plagerism or anything.

    I meant it as a compliment... Tweedy's lyrics are amazing...

    I know :)
    And I DO take it as a compliment. I love Wilco. I smiled real big when you mentioned that this could be one of their songs. :) Thanks, MIG!

    I've been trying to figure out their song "At Least That's What You Said" and was searching the web with guitar in hand... I guess that's what prompted my reply...
