Betty's Body Lyrics - Demons Dance Alone - Residents

Anybody but Betty 

Anybody but Betty 

Anybody but Betty 

Anybody but Betty 

I could be the lover 

Of anybody but her 

I could be the lover 

Of anybody but her 

I see her every morning 

And watch her fingers forming 

Shapes that are as graceful 

As a baby's face full of hope 

Until it turns to 

A neediness that burns through 

Your heart like it was butter 

In the mouth of someone's mother

9 Misheard Christmas Carol Lyrics 

Betty's body, Betty's body 

Betty's body, Betty's body 

A certain scent of perfume 

Makes me think of her room 

And how I'd like to be there 

Lightly touching her bare back 

And gently soaking 

In the sweet unspoken 

I could be her lover 

If it, if it weren't for mother 

Betty, Betty 

If you met me, you'd forget me 

Betty, Betty 

I am so shy, every day I 

Secretly cry since my mom died

Anybody but Betty 

Anybody but Betty 

Anybody but Betty 

Anybody but Betty 

I could be the lover 

Of anybody but her 

I could be her lover 

If it, if it weren't for mother
