Now and Then: Pick My Bones

Pick My Bones

All of King Lear's daughters
He'd be so proud
Big Daddy's empire, it's all falling down
Go ahead, dig a hole
But no need to bother filling it

Won't let them sleep
That's the price of fame
From James Dean to Kurt Cobain
Everybody step up
And get your fifteen minutes of Christ

(Chorus)
Saying, pick my bones
It's bound to be worth it
Pick my bones
I probably deserve it
Pick my bones
Isn't that what you... want to hear?

Jefferson said to Princess Diana
"We should make a zombie film for our fans
And if you put on blackface
We could give the fat-racks a scream"

(Repeat chorus)
