Under the Horse

Under the Horse by Henrietta and the Hostage (circa July 2004)

All last weekend
I made some plans for you
Early departure
would suit you just fine

You swept me away
Now I’ll do away with you
The hired assassin
could drop in today [to drop you down]

They say true sorrow
is a cold, dark grave
but sometimes that just really makes my day
[don’t look now turn around]

Once you promised me somewhere over the rainbow
but I got thrown under the horse
[it’s time to end the suffering]
Once you promised me somewhere over the rainbow
I’ll have to send you there by force
[it’s time to end the suffering]

All last evening
I listed some things to do
take a vacation
and lay low for awhile

In the world we live in
You should learn a thing or two
Don’t take your chances
with the mobster boss’s child
[too late now]

Thought I’d be sorry
once you’re stone cold dead
but I just regret not chopping off your head
[not upstairs downtown]

Once you promised me somewhere over the rainbow
but I got thrown under the horse
[it’s time to end the suffering]
Once you promised me somewhere over the rainbow
they buried you in the gold course
[it’s time to end the suffering]
[it’s time to end the suffering]

Vacation all I ever wanted
Vacation got to get away
Vacation all I ever needed
A vacation and a fast getaway
