Song lyrics Coconut Skins by Damien Rice

You can hold her hand and show her how you cry
Explain to her your weakness so she understands
And then roll over and die

You can brave decisions before you crumble up inside
Spend your time asking everyone else's permission
Then run away and hide

Or you can sit on chimneys, put some fire up your ass
No need to know what you're doing or waiting for
But if anyone should ask

Tell them I've been licking coconut skins and we've been hanging out
Tell them God just dropped by to forgive our sins
And relieve us our doubt

La la la la la la la...

Oh you can hold her eggs, but your basket has a hole
You can lie between her legs and go looking for
Tell her you're searching for her soul

You can wait for ages, watch your compost turn to coal
Time is contagious
Everybody's getting old

So you can sit on chimneys, put some fire up your ass
No need to know what you're doing or looking for
But if anyone should ask

Tell them I've been cooking coconut skins and we've been hanging out
Tell them God just dropped by to forgive our sins
And relieve us our doubt
