Grant‐Lee Phillips - Lily-a-Passion Lyrics

Hey, she?s a piratey soul

Full a' vinagar and glitter

She is a song of her own

From down the wrong end of the river

Wild, like the lily-a-passion

Have you ever had the honors

Oh no, no, no, no, no, no

Hey, when your carnival rose

Sows the kiss of belladonna

There ain't no takin? it slow

For the avalanches? daughter


Wild, like the lily-a-passion

Have you ever had the honors

Oh no, no

Oh, no, no

Oh,no,no,no,no,no,no


She is the lily-a-passion

She is the lily-a-passion

She is the lily-a-passion

She is the lily-uh huh


She is a canary royal

Save the curse a' Desdamona

Bright, bright, bright is the blush of her smile

Like the apples a' Pomona

Wild, like the lily-a-passion

Have you ever had the honors

Oh no, no, no,no,no, no


Hey, she?s the fork in the road

When the road has come to splinter

Yea, she?s the spark in the coal

Come the bitterness a' winter

Wild, like the lily-a-passion

Have you ever had the honors

Oh no, no

oh, no, no

Oh,no,no,no,no,no,no

She is the lily-a-passion

She is the lily-a-passion

She is the lily-a-passion

She is the lily-uh huh
