All Peach Pit Songs

oh peach pit where'd the hours go 
when your orange skin began to glow 
from a hanging branch in gardens home 

not much is hidden underneath 
a rock heart for breaking teeth 
and apple cores cyanide seed 

it's been a long season through 
all this rotting fruit with you 
it's been a long season through 
this rotting fruit with you 

lift back and see the darkness hid 
swallowed up an angled in 
looking back at sweetness dim 

ripe june had leaf and shady friend 
the cool are is gone again

Sweet FA

Peach Pit

i say here stand i 
i can't do otherwise 
but is it enough 
and why'd you look so tough 

back at patrick park 
we stood in the dark 
in my beer stained mind 
i said please won't you be mine 

there's something dark hangin' over my head 
i'm seventeen don't hold your breath 

on the high school lot 
you'd kiss me so long 
but lessons don't last 
when i'm playing you so fast 

there's something dark hangin' over my head 
i'm seventeen don't hold your breath 

punch and first collapse 
drunk at winter dance 
looks in red dress 
oh what an awful mess

Seventeen

you said you didn't know her name yesterday 
but now you've got her stayin' later on 
in whispered press a lash is left on her cheek 
just brush it off you got her feelin' weak 

after practice you were sitting on the lawn 
while she was laughin' in the sun 

you sure know how to drop that guillotine on me 
though you would never wanna see me bleed 
i'll just wipe off my neck then leave you in between 
you sure know how to kill me 

i saw you lookin' back a lot yesterday 
thinkin' how could you get this goin' on 
in whispered press her lips said yes, dance with me 
just pull her close you got her feelin' weak 

in the middle of darkness after everybody's gone 
she'll be lookin' back at you for the dawn

Drop the Guillotine

sweet fa 
i'll take you any day, don't take me out 
just let me hear the growl from those 
perfect lips 
your sweet caressing kiss can lay me out 
just don't go lead me south 

as you seep on in and keep me down 
as you seep on in and keep me lying' round 

morning blues 
you're such a sweet perfume, just shut your eyes 
and don't go leave my side 
i'll couch my days, I'm gone in such a blaze of lazy love 
and it's turning me to scum
