lyrics

Don’t Punish Me
Clara Lofaro

He’s runnin’ down the highway
With ribbons in his hair
Bumpers going sideways
Feathers everywhere
He wants to catch the world by storm
Wants life to take a chair
Bumpers parting sideways
Feathers stop and stare

“I’ll meet you at my funeral.” he says.
You can’t stop me here alive or dead
I need some help, a doctor or a priest
Don’t punish me. Help me out or leave

CHORUS
Ooo…Don’t punish me
Ooo…For what you see
Ooo…Don’t punish me
Ooo…You’re blind to be
Ooooo- Punishin’ me

You see I was a doctor before I was a priest
Found my faith in healin’, lost it in disease
I traveled all this country, to find it all the same
I give you tears for laughter, come now let it rain

Come now let it rain

This doctor had a baby, tried to make her mine
Raised her right on Sundays, girl kept crying all the time
She thought that I would listen, thought that I would care
Too busy healing nothing, taught her a life unfair

CHORUS

You listen to a doctor
You bow down to a priest
Appreciate a mother
Leave a drag queen beggin’ please
I tell you I’m not crazy
Just wakin’ up too late
Take me out or leave now
But don’t punish me

See, she wen’t runnin’ down the highway
With ribbons in her hair
Her mother didn’t listen
Her father didn’t care
She thought she’d catch the world by storm
Thought life would take a chair
Bumpers going sideways
Feathers everywhere
Bumpers going sideways
Feathers Everywhere
Bumpers going sideways
Feathers everywhere

CHORUS
