I Went Dancing with My Sister
Sufjan Stevens
We were, we were, we were lovers
We had nothing but above us
We were touching, we were turning
We were eighteen, get to learning
Saw your mother at the river
Washing ribbons, saw her sip, saw her sip there
I've seen laymen up and walking
I've seen deaf and dead men talking
And I have had enough of trouble
I've been paid in full and double
Break a glass against the table
Break a promise if you're, if you're able
I went dancing with my sister
Call her madam, call me mister
She wore dresses, nice and something
Underneath her dress was nothing
She did curse it, she did keep it
She said she did something stupid
I said who's the master idol
I can kill or catch a fly dead
Point me in the right direction
Point me to the middle section
And I have had enough of trouble
I've been paid in full and double
Break a glass against the table
Break a promise if you're, if you're able
Break a glass against the table
Break a promise if you're, if you're, if you're able
