Lyrics

Marmalade

[Verse 1: Serj Tankian]

Stretching, filing, against her skin

Blessed are those who are not kin

In sin, we breathe; in sex, we tie

Duct tape her legs to the red sky

Foolsome flesh allowances

The pansies raided the pantry of

Gabardine dreams, promiscuous

Delight, deny not the flavor

[Bridge: Serj Tankian]

Custard dreams

Abusing, musing

Marmalade flesh

Naked spread, am I high? Am I high?

[Verse 2: Serj Tankian]

Actors of the tragic phantom

Extend your legs for great Saturn

Brown table tops scream for cover

At the sight of your new lover

[Chorus: Serj Tankian]

If today I die

And can't deny

The poison chosen

For tonight, tonight

Woo!

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3: Serj Tankian]

Borrowed dreams, hollowed reveries

Metal pillows, pewter yellows

Furry roadkill, house on the hill

Pouring gravy on her thighs still

[Chorus: Serj Tankian]

If today I die

And can't deny

The poison chosen

For tonight, tonight
