How Dirty Girls Get Clean [Hole]

[Side Projects]

 

Lyrics

I've lost my mind, yeah, I've lost control
I've the lost the feeling in my arms, I'm a lost soul
Make the most of me, baby, oh, don't spit me out
This is how dirty girls get clean, don't leave me now

Listen to her lust, yeah, hear her disgrace
Listen to the fragile things as they all break
Watch from the covers, the comfort of your home
Through the ice and sleet, baby, oh, down, down we go

What angry star runs your devil heart?
What angry star runs your devil heart?
Oh, oh, how'd you get so mean?
This is the only way the dirty girls stay clean

And I wanted you like no one before
Said you're coming back for me, honey
This is how hell forms
This is how a storm begins and this is how trouble's born

Listen to her sleep, listen to her wail
You've given birth to terrible things, watch them unveil
Listen to my torment, listen to my pain
Please come on back here, baby, let me try again

What angry star runs your devil heart?
What angry star runs your devil heart?
Oh, oh, how'd you get so mean?
This is the only way the dirty girls stay clean

And the rain, it poured down
And the wind, it moaned
And she wrapped her legs around him
And she's got no home

And he's looking at me, oh God, he looks so dumb
What are you staring at? This is how it's done
I will define for you the meaning of greed
While you were vanishing, this dirty girl got clean

What angry star runs your devil heart?
What angry star runs your devil heart?
Oh, oh, how'd you get so mean?
This is the only way the dirty girls stay clean

Oh, oh, how'd you get so mean?
This is the only way the dirty girls stay clean
Oh, oh, how'd you get so mean?
This is the only way the dirty girls stay clean
