lyrics

Oh, Maria what happened to your accent
All those months in Canada pretending to be Someone else
Gee, i can’t tell you now from all those other girls iphone beauties
Making plans that don’t include me
Lord, make me good
But not till I’ve understood
Why you’re still hungry...for the glitter and the grime
Oh, Maria, what’s happened to us all
We’ve shrunken our lovely blue and green and silver ball Burnt our garden bare, snakes in the larder where
I was Eve, waiting by the Christmas tree
Oh, Maria, i’m so sorry
I know i have disappointed thee
These days you say you see
our love is getting lost, leaking out between the claws Of people we called friends
Of beginnings that were really ends
I’ll go truth and lies, you go heads and tails
There’s no such thing, you say, as loyalty and faith
Oh, Maria, dear as it happens now,
I got nothing done, not for days or months Maybe never mind, maybe forever finds me With a needle and a thread
And a book of what’s in your head
Trying to find the vein
I’m looking for a way,
to stay and not to leave
all the glitter and the grime
