Daisy Dead Petals
Daisy dead petals that is her name She's in a phone booth phase so underneath
the shade of a peppermint tray She can turn it out with a heel on She just rides into
town knowing what they'll say Knowing they're around the corner got a crack in got
a crack in some strange places
Daisy dead petals that is her name So maybe she tastes like a hamburger maid
Well these dead petals honey brought me here she said "These dead petals honey
brought me here"
Dancing on a dime Hearing mother cry Maybe she's around the corner
Got a crack in Got a crack in some strange places on back with On back with some
dirty dishes
Falling down falling down all over the river Falling down falling down falling down
Wish what I'm feeling could go on like this forever falling down falling down
falling down
And since we're down might as well stay Might as well fry some eggs and wave the
shade of peppermint tray She's a new friend not a skeleton to ride into town
knowing what they'll say knowing she tastes like a hamburger maid but
"These dead petals honey brought me here"
Here's Tori'd description of it:
"b-sides are very funny things. because these girls have such attitude! it's like, y'know, not all of you can be album babes. it's like, you just can't! unless you do the double-box set thing which is like ooo, y'know..i'm only, y'know what i was saying. the world won't understand. and so um they get very snippity with me sometimes. it's like, (high pitched sqeaky voice) 'oh why'd you put her on, i'm waving, sh-sh-sh-she's a piece of shit. i'm really hot!' it's like, you just didn't fit on. (high pitched sqeaky voice) 'well why didn't i fit on i am like hotter than she is i'm way cooler than she is!' so you know this girls..you're trying to kiss the guy, right. you're like getting it, you know how you're like this close and it's like you're breathing in and you're like breathing them in...and it's like: oh this is gonna be yummy. (high pitched sqeaky voice) 'why didn't you put me on the record! nehnehneh!'...so this is one of them. she is so annoying! but i totally love her."
