Title: Donkeys
Album: Lipstick Traces: A Secret History Of Manic Street Preachers
Artist: Manic Street Preachers
Composer(s): James Dean Bradfield, Richard James Edwards, Sean Anthony Moore, Nicholas Allen Jones
Lyric:
Put some lipstick on
At least your lies will be pretty
A shadow on my face
And us donkeys wake up weary
Sweatin' and sickly
Donkeys don't allow their tears
No emotion, never feel
And drown themselves in whatever
Find some meanin'
Donkeys weight crackin' a spire
Sweetness bent double
Whole days makin' polite
Never movin' out of turn
Or ever trying to be natural
Those with silence inside
Eyes bare, piss holes in the snow
Drained and burnt yellow
And sunk in self-pity
Jerusalem saw off
Donkeys are only left with lies
Are only left with lies
