lyrics

Oh my dear where's my dowry?
my baby carriage and my diamond ring?
I've sweating for seven years and you still wont
set me free.
who buys the cow when the milk is free?
we've been out too long and now we're spoiling

someone new would cure my blues
I'm already borrowed and bruised

Tell me is this tradition true?
don't you see the same rotten fruit?
we watch the worms as they burrow through
but you still persist to chew.
who would sell a broken parachute?
I fell for you with my pack full of forks and spoons

someone new would cure my blues
I'm already borrowed and bruised

Adam spared one of his ribs?
do me a favor and you try this
run your fingers up and down do you see
gaps in this hypothesis?
if we're equals then we don't need any means of
ownership.
And if it's in the name of love then were every one
of Solomon's wives legitimate?
