Here where the carousel spins

On an ocean of blame

We pick pockets in the crowds

Near the gold mines of shame





And I will wear a red ruby ring

That reflects the full moon

Meet me on the corner tonight

And we'll sleep deep down in the sand dunes





Chorus:

Susie climbed a mountain of tacks

She lost control of the facts

She put all of the clothes in a brown paper sack

And drove outta state the next day before sunrise

Before sunrise







Susie climbed a mountain of tacks





Walkin' by the old funzone1

South of the gutter of doubt

Past a broken mirror glass

The reflection faded in and out

And I saw her there





Chorus repeat x3
