Lyrics

Mascara Runs

A Chinese medicine place
Covered in proof that it's all legitimate
So follow with me now

Across the street where an old man smashed his head
On the curb, but he lived
He lived, and I heard what they said

Keep my hands in place
Keep my head on
Keep us beautiful, happy, and alive
Keep my head on
Thank God, thank love
Thank Chinese medicine for that

Gathered round looking down
At the crimson flower on the ground
The old man raised his head
And the people raised their hands

Keep my hands in place
Keep my head on
Keep us beautiful, happy, and alive
Keep my head on
Thank God, thank love
Thank Chinese medicine for that

Thank God, thank love
Thank Chinese medicine

Keep my hands in place
Keep my head on
Keep us beautiful, happy, and alive
Keep my head on
Thank God, thank love
Thank Chinese medicine for that
