[Chorus]
Magnolia, you evade my love
Gin in my cup, can I please give up?
[Verse 1]
I been sinking into cynicism everyday
And this spring of hope is drier than this chardonnay
Still the ivory blossoms never cease to call on me
Can you let me slumber six feet deep?
This hope is my enemy
And my only remedy
My time is limited
Gotta get this pedigree
I’m who I pretend to be
In my twisted fantasy
Another springtime passes by
[Chorus]
Magnolia, you evade my love
Gin in my cup, can I please give up?
Slash, then sew me up, then prescribe me your drug
This rum in my cup, its icy fingers tuck me in snug
[Verse 2]
No matter what i drink, I taste blood
Instant karma for my smoking gun
Power games, but I’ve had enough
These flowers cannot bloom in my mud
Blackened magnolia, strip for me Mobius
I’m at my lowliest
When i try to court luck
Try to hoard us
Is this what i deserve, oh
[Chorus]
Magnolia, you evade my love
Gin in my cup, can I please give up
Slash, then sew me up, then prescribe me your drug
This rum in my cup, its icy fingers tuck me in snug
[Outro]
In the den of thieves
Sentimentally
Is it any surprise you’re
Consumed by entropy
And this centipede
Passes you by
