Betty Songtext
von The Mess Hall

Betty found the city
Now the city′s found Betty in a hole
With a tattoo 'round her ankle
And a tiny little jackal in her soul

They wrapped her up and put her in a hole
Yeah, they put her in a hole
Wrapped her up and put her in a hole
Yeah, they put her in a hole

It was six in the morning
When I saw her shaking hands with a ghost
Trying to rub the cracks from her face
As a new day broke

They wrapped her up and put her in a hole
Yeah, they put her in a hole
Wrapped her up and put her in a hole
Yeah, they put her in a hole

Someday you′ll be rid of this weight


She takes her father's kiss
And wipes it from her cold, cold lips
She takes her father's kiss
And wipes it from her cold, cold lips

Sitting on a park bench
Waiting for the neon to glow
Tracing little pictures in the air
′Cause her boat don′t row

They wrapped her up and put her in a hole
Yeah, they put her in a hole
Wrapped her up and put her in a hole
Yeah, they put her in a hole

Someday you'll be rid of this weight

She takes her father′s kiss
And wipes it from her cold, cold lips
She takes her father's kiss
And wipes it from her cold, cold lips
She takes her father′s kiss
And wipes it from her cold, cold lips
She takes her father's kiss
And wipes it from her cold, cold lips


Life ain′t as it seems
When you chase the tail of a dream
As she, she rides around on a carousel
She, she rides around on a carousel
She, she rides around on a carousel
She, she rides around on a carousel
She, she rides around on a carousel
