Icicle

Music and Lyrics by Tori Amos

Icicle Icicle where are you going 
I have a hiding place when spring marches in
will you keep watch for me I hear them calling 

gonna lay down 
gonna lay down

greeting the monster in our Easter dresses 
Father says bow you head like the Good Book says 
well I think the Good Book is missing some pages 

gonna lay down 
gonna lay down

and when my hand touches myself 
I can finally rest my head 
and when they say "take of his body" 
I think I'll take from mine instead

Getting Off 
Getting Off 
while they're all downstairs 
singing prayers 
sing away
he's in my pumpkin p.j's 
lay a book on my chest 
feel the word 
feel the word 
feel the word 
feel it

I could have 
I should have 
I could have flown you know 

I could have 
I should have 
I didn't know
