Pretty Pink Rose Lyrics - Adrian Belew

Yeah, she's just been to Russia and they're dying, their faces 

They're dying over there 

A pretty pink rose 

That rock 'n' roll lady takes a spaceship ride 

She's out of this world 

A pretty pink rose 

And we're living for you my love 

We're living for you 

And we're dying for you my love 

Pretty pink rose 

She tore down Paris on the tail of Thom Paine 

But the left wing's broken the right's insane 

A pretty pink rose 

Have a nice day, it's a killer, turn a cheek 

It's a Christian code 

A pretty pink rose 

And we're living for you my love 

Yes, we're living for you 

And we're dying for you my love 

Pretty pink rose 

She's the poor man's gold, she's the anarchist crucible 

Flyin' in the face of the despot cannibal 

Pretty pink rose 

Never let it rain 

Never rain on the heart of the pretty pink rose 

Pretty pink rose 

And we're living for you my love 

We're living for you 

And we're dying for you my love 

Pretty pink rose 

Get me through the pain 

Through the pain of the thorn on the pretty pink rose 

Never let it rain, never rain, never rain 

On the pretty pink rose 

Take me to the heart, to the heart, to the heart of the pretty pink rose 

Take me to the heart, to the heart, to the heart 

Take me to the heart, to the heart, to the heart of the pretty pink rose 

Take me to the heart, to the heart, to the heart 

Take me to the heart, to the heart, to the heart of the pretty pink rose 

Take me to the heart, to the heart, to the heart
