Elvis Perkins - Shampoo Lyrics

sweep up, little sweeper boy

It's you who's got the wig on here

sweep up, little sweeper boy, sweep up

yellow is the color of my true love's crossbow

yellow is the color of the sun

and black is the color of

a strangled rainbow

that's the color of my loss

black is the color of my true love's arrow

that's the color of human blood

you got a shot of shampoo

though it was made thirty years ago

you got a shot of shampoo

though you were made twenty years ago


speak up, little sweeper boy

they are hard of hearing

anything that anyone has to say

o they say

yellow is the color of my true love's crossbow

yellow is the color of the sun

black is the color of

a strangled rainbow

the color of my loss

and black is the color of my true love's arrow

that's the color of my blood
