I Spit Roses Lyrics - Ninth - Peter Murphy

The captain is sea 

In the moonlight the same 

The ship all himself 

Rose Spitter, the name 

A high mutiny 

Submerged down and under 

Shake-shack left you in shock 

Shed poison with a lover's lock 

All hands wound and fraught 

Blow the dark that we thought 

Oo-oh (I spit roses) 

Oo-oh (I spit)

Shake-shack, ring the bell 

Pretty, petty, they shall swell 

Swell kid-like, kid-like squeak 

Was it a trick or was it treat? 

Oo-oh (I spit roses) 

Oo-oh (I spit) 

The captain is sea 

In the moonlight the same 

Reflex us and him 

He blurts karma, no sin 

The tall one astute 

The ginger all things 

To all men he's kind 

A split heart from mind 

I spit roses and thank 

Oh, the boat we thought sank

(Oo-oh) I spit roses 

(Oo-oh) I spit roses 

(Oo-oh) I spit roses 

(Oo-oh) I spit roses 

(Oo-oh) I spit roses 

(Oo-oh) I spit roses 

Roses 

I spit roses 

I spit roses (Wall to wall, pillar to post) 

(I'm back at the task, the task, that I love most) 

Roses (Wall to wall, pillar to post) 

(I'm back at the task, the task, that I love most) 

Roses (I'm back at the task, the task that I love most) 

Roses
