lyrics

It’s in the Euphoria she sprays
And encoded in her ways (her ways)
Concealed, in the outfit revealed
And entangled in her hair
Oh, knotted in her hair

She cried, “Joe, please don’t leave me
I’m so sorry forgive me”
She cried, “Joe, please don’t leave me
20,000 Miles from home
With no place else to go”

It’s in her warm breath he breaths in
And in the stories that she spins (She spins)
Etched deep in the line on her face
Furrowed by disgrace

She cried, “Joe, please don’t leave me
I’m so sorry forgive me”
She cried, “Joe, please don’t leave me
20,000 Miles from home
With no place else to go”

They said this and the said that
Sir Walter Scott wrote what Joe’s driving at
Oh what a tangled web she has spun, Oh!

She cried, “Joe, please don’t leave me
I’m so sorry forgive me”
She cried, “Joe, please don’t leave me
20,000 Miles from home
With no place else to go
20,000 Miles from home
With no place else to go
No place to go”
