Barons of Suburbia by Tori Amos Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Barons of suburbia
Take another piece of my good graces
I'm in my war, you're in yours
Do we fight for peace as they take another piece of us?
[Pre-Chorus]
But, baby, I would let your darkness invade me
You could maybe turn this white light into navy before you leave
It was a slight miscalculation that my friends
My friends would be waiting
[Chorus]
On the other side of the bridge
On the other side of this
This molehill of a mountain
This potion now a poison
They're on the other side of right
We're on the other side of her midnight
Her midnight, her midnight
[Verse 2]
When it's all said and done we will lose a piece
To a carnivorous vegetarian
Barons of suburbia, I have heard you pray
Before you devour her
[Pre-Chorus]
So, baby, will you let my darkness invade you?
You always liked your wafer sweet in the middle before you leave
It was a slight miscalculation that our friends
Our friends would be waiting
[Chorus]
On the other side of the bridge
On the other side of this
This molehill of a mountain
This potion now a poison
They're on the other side of right
We're on the other side of her midnight
Her midnight, her midnight
[Bridge]
I'm piecing a potion to combat your poison
I'm piecing a potion to combat your poison
I'm piecing a potion to combat your poison
I'm piecing a potion to combat your poison
I'm piecing a potion to combat your poison
I'm piecing a potion to combat your poison
I'm piecing a potion to combat your poison
[Outro]
She is risen, she is risen, boys
I said, she is risen
Barons of suburbia
Take another piece of my good graces
I'm in my war, you're in yours
Do we fight for peace as they take another piece of us?
[Pre-Chorus]
But, baby, I would let your darkness invade me
You could maybe turn this white light into navy before you leave
It was a slight miscalculation that my friends
My friends would be waiting
[Chorus]
On the other side of the bridge
On the other side of this
This molehill of a mountain
This potion now a poison
They're on the other side of right
We're on the other side of her midnight
Her midnight, her midnight
[Verse 2]
When it's all said and done we will lose a piece
To a carnivorous vegetarian
Barons of suburbia, I have heard you pray
Before you devour her
[Pre-Chorus]
So, baby, will you let my darkness invade you?
You always liked your wafer sweet in the middle before you leave
It was a slight miscalculation that our friends
Our friends would be waiting
[Chorus]
On the other side of the bridge
On the other side of this
This molehill of a mountain
This potion now a poison
They're on the other side of right
We're on the other side of her midnight
Her midnight, her midnight
[Bridge]
I'm piecing a potion to combat your poison
I'm piecing a potion to combat your poison
I'm piecing a potion to combat your poison
I'm piecing a potion to combat your poison
I'm piecing a potion to combat your poison
I'm piecing a potion to combat your poison
I'm piecing a potion to combat your poison
[Outro]
She is risen, she is risen, boys
I said, she is risen
