Cliffhanger Ft Kim Wilde

Ghost Of God

they say He was madE Sculted by clAY
what’s one rose in vain to his coloSsal vase
He says i will try to lovE you
i'Ll try tO loVe you to lovE you 
i gazed him in sin deprived of the taSte of his liPs
linger on memory for my angel must leave 
He says i will try to lovE yOu
i'll try to love you to love you 
But hE could never love you and her too said that he’d never hurt you 
But he coUld Too cus he Doesn’t lOvE you 
and her too Said that He’d nEver hurt you 
but he could too 
cus he doesn’t love you

I’m a Christmas unicorn
In a uniform made of gold
With a billy goat beard
And a sorceror’s shield
And mistletoe on my nose

Oh I’m a Christian holiday
I’m a symbol of original sin
I’ve a pagan tree and magical wreath 
And a bowtie on my chin

Oh I’m a pagan heresy
I’m a tragic-al Catholic shrine
I’m a little bit shy with a lazy eye 
And a penchant for sublime

Oh I’m a mystical apostasy
I’m a horse with a fantasy twist
Though I play all night with my magical kite 
People say I don’t exist

For I make no full apology
For the category I reside
I’m a mythical mess with a treasury chest 
I’m a construct of your mind

Oh I’m hysterically American
I’ve a credit card on my wrist
And I have no home nor field to roam 
I will curse you with my kiss

Oh I’m a criminal pathology
With a history of medical care
I’m frantic shopper and a brave pill popper 
And they say my kind are rare

But I’ve seen others in the uniform
Of a unicorn just like me
We are legions wide and we chose no sides
We are masters of mystique

For you’re a Christmas unicorn 
I have seen you on the beat
You may dress in the human uniform, child
But I know you’re just like me 
I’m a Christmas Unicorn! (Find the Christmas Unicorn!) 
You’re a Christmas Unicorn too!
￼￼￼
It’s all right. I love you.

It’s time to tango with the frisky frosty Frosty Man
He’s got a temperature of negative degrees again
He likes ice cream and Yo La Tango with the jammin’ pants 
You got to cool it with the hipster costly Frosty Man
He’s chillin’, illin’, thrillin’ with the Mr. Saucy Pants
He likes to keep it real; he likes to talk a little sense
He’s got a friend called Coolio, Vanilla Ice, and Ice-Cube Banana split and frozen pie and Mr. Frosty Pants

Mr. --- Frosty ---- Man
Frosty! Frosty! Frosty! Frosty! Etc. --- Frosty Man

Don’t get his goat he just might melt and then he gets all mean
When summer comes he sits beside the air conditioning But Mr. Frosty, don’t be bossy: winter’s coming soon And when it snows again--Frosty!

Sufjan Stevens, "Justice Delivers Its Death"

Asthmatic Kitty Records is an independent record label that was co-founded by Lowell Brams and his stepson, singer-songwriter Sufjan Stevens, in 1999. Since its founding, AKR has released albums by a variety of artists, including Lily & Madeleine, My Brightest Diamond and Helado Negro, and is currently home to Sufjan Stevens, Angelo De Augustine, Denison Witmer and The Welcome Wagon. 

Asthmatic Kitty was named after Sara, an orange and white tabby who wandered out of the woods pregnant and starving near Holland, Michigan in 1994. For fourteen years she brought joy as a beloved friend to Lowell, enjoying a happy life despite her initial hardships. Her asthma improved after moving west to New Mexico and Wyoming, where she lived out her days as an asthmatic kitty in name only.
