lyrics
Your arms across my back, a pistol on a string
Dangling from your wrist and spun my like an upright
Sweetly, I'm reduced to your weapon of choice
The ghosts are bursting out and burning down the house
But you've got no reason, no nothing, no cause
To let them loose, oh, them parlor tricks you know can kill you
Oh, yell, rebel, yell
Oh, yell, rebel, yell
Oh well
I've got a red handkerchief roped up around my leg
I stole it when you turned me and spun me like an upright
Sweetly, you return me to the floor, away again
Oh, yell, rebel, yell
Oh, yell, rebel, yell
Oh well
Dangling from your wrist and spun my like an upright
Sweetly, I'm reduced to your weapon of choice
The ghosts are bursting out and burning down the house
But you've got no reason, no nothing, no cause
To let them loose, oh, them parlor tricks you know can kill you
Oh, yell, rebel, yell
Oh, yell, rebel, yell
Oh well
I've got a red handkerchief roped up around my leg
I stole it when you turned me and spun me like an upright
Sweetly, you return me to the floor, away again
Oh, yell, rebel, yell
Oh, yell, rebel, yell
Oh well
