Green fairy,
Mary,
did you drink too much too?
Were there times when you thought too little
When you just craved that feeling of somewhere else?
Did you lean on the fruits of the earth
To get you from here, to here, to here
Oh Mary
Oh Mother
Sometimes i feel like I can’t do anything unless I’ve got a fix behind me
I look for that sparkle between the blood
I have to say
I’m singing to you sober
Thank you
I’d almost forgotten who I am
