Songtexte Pigs & Pearls - J Roddy Walston and the Business

I know ya stole it
Now you're gonna walk it around
Everybody knows ya stole it
Now you're gonna walk it around
Feeling like a big house
Caught on fire, rippin' me down
And I'm, I'm in a broken piper now

Feelin' like hippie
Ya stick like a movie screen
Says he's comin' back
That boy's just sugar and cream
Everybody's runnin' to come get some
Ya say my, oh my
What have I become?

Well it's not that boy
It's not his brother
It's just me
Got no other
You made a friend
Rather talk than fight
Open my mouth
And I'll shut your mouth
Horrible words
Gonna come around
You
Are just a pig
I fed with pearls

I know your greasy smile
You can just walk it around
My family knows your greasy smile
You can just walk it around
Ma and Pa picked up the phone
Papa helped me put it back down
Oh, put it down
You'd be more offended
It was so hard to afford
Man took it all
Boy says, well
You will go far
Takin' all his bread and butter
Everybody said
My, oh my
What got in your head?

Oh, it's not that boy
It's not his brother
It's just me
Got no other
You made a friend
Rather talk than fight
Open my mouth
And I'll shut your mouth
Horrible words
Gonna come around
You
Are just a pig
I fed with pearls

I went to your house
Sweet Maybellene
You did a deed that I'd never seen
I will never go that way again, no
I have seen
The end of ends

And it's not that boy
It's not his brother
It's just me
Got no other
You made a friend
Rather talk than fight
Open my mouth
And I'll shut your mouth
Horrible words
Gonna come around
You
Are just a pig
I fed with pearls
Yeah
You are just
A pig I fed with pearls
