Purple People Live Plugged Tour 1998 by Tori Amos Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Well, hey do you do judo when they surround you?
A little mental yoga, will they disappear?
It's grim but never dubious as motives go
One thing she always promise, promises a show
[Chorus]
Thunder wishes it could be the snow
Wishes it could be as loved as she can be
These gifts are here for her, for you, for me
[Verse 2]
I watch me be this other thing and never know
If I'm marooned or where the purple people go
Then lily white matricide from vicious words
It doesn't leave a scratch, so therefore, no one's hurt
[Chorus]
Thunder wishes it could be the snow
Wishes it could be as loved as she can be
These gifts are here for her, for you, for me
[Bridge]
And don't you know? The nurses make it clear
Just when you escape, you have yourself to fear
A restaurant that never has to close
Breakfast at every hour, it could save the world
[Verse 3]
So hey, do you do judo in your finery?
An angel's face is tricky to wear constantly
[Chorus]
Thunder wishes it could be the snow
Wishes it could be as loved as she can be
These gifts are here for her, for you, for me
[Outro]
For her, for her, mmm...
Well, hey do you do judo when they surround you?
A little mental yoga, will they disappear?
It's grim but never dubious as motives go
One thing she always promise, promises a show
[Chorus]
Thunder wishes it could be the snow
Wishes it could be as loved as she can be
These gifts are here for her, for you, for me
[Verse 2]
I watch me be this other thing and never know
If I'm marooned or where the purple people go
Then lily white matricide from vicious words
It doesn't leave a scratch, so therefore, no one's hurt
[Chorus]
Thunder wishes it could be the snow
Wishes it could be as loved as she can be
These gifts are here for her, for you, for me
[Bridge]
And don't you know? The nurses make it clear
Just when you escape, you have yourself to fear
A restaurant that never has to close
Breakfast at every hour, it could save the world
[Verse 3]
So hey, do you do judo in your finery?
An angel's face is tricky to wear constantly
[Chorus]
Thunder wishes it could be the snow
Wishes it could be as loved as she can be
These gifts are here for her, for you, for me
[Outro]
For her, for her, mmm...
