Pound Of Flesh - Regina Spektor

If your never sorry
then you can't be forgiven
if your not forgiven
then you cant be forgotten
if your not forgotten
then you can live forever
if you live forever
then you begin to dream
of death death death death death

ezra pound sat upon my bed
asked me which books as of late ive read
ezra pound sat upon my bed
asked me which books as of late i have read
asked me if i've uh read his own
and whether i could spare a pound
of flesh to cover his bare bones
i says man take a pound, take two
whats a pound of flesh between friends like me and you

whats a pound of flesh among friends
whats a pound of flesh among friends

but if your never sorry
if your never sorry

if your never sorry
then you cant be forgiven
if your not forgiven
then you cant be forgotten
if your not forgotten
then you must live forever
if you live forever
you can not be reborn
if your not reborn
then you cant be a baby
if your not a baby
you cant learn how to crawl

if you cannot crawl away
then you must stay in bed all day
if you stay in bed all day
your sure to have some visitors

ezra pound will sit upon your bed
ask you which books as of late you have read
ask you if you've read his own
and whether you could spare a pound
of flesh to cover his bare bones
you'll say man take a pound, take two
whats a pound of flesh between friends like me and you

whats a pound of flesh among friends
whats a pound of flesh among friends
whats a pound of flesh among friends
