Versuri

  
Black hearts in effigy  
We sing a song that was hated  
All dressed in rag and bones  
Sharks smell the blood that I'm bleeding  
I know there's something wrong  
Might take a fire to kill it  
Might take a hurricane  
Don't know what life that I'm livin  
 
Black tambourine  
 
My baby run to me  
She lives in broken down buildings  
Can't pay the rent again  
These spider webs are my home now  
And when the sun is down  
We'll shake and rattle our bodies  
To keep it warm at night  
My tambourine is still shaking  
 
Black tambourine
