Baptized by Taylor’s Port and Mary Jane
Baptized by Taylor’s Port and Mary Jane
My black robe needs tailoring
Pinch my nose and I fall back into
The red waters of my sins
MJ throws a lifeline
Inhale my savior
Breathing Holy Spirit out of my lungs
Fog forms on the altar
Leave some quarters to light a candle
On my knees in the bottle
Doesn’t take the tarnish off of who I am
So I dip myself in again
Hoping to shed some sins
At least a little
Leave my flank open
Mary Jane comes back in
With her sins
If it was up to daddy alcohol by Knockout
If it was up to me Mary Jane by TKO
