Talula, lyric by Tori Amos

from the songs album Boys for Pele

Congradulate you
said you had a double tongue
Balancing cake and bread
Say goodbye to a glitter girl

Talula
Talula
You don't want to lose her
She must be worth losing
if it is worth something
Talula
Talula
She's brand new now to you
Wrapped in your papoose
Your little fig newton

Say goodbye to the old world

Ran into the henchman who severed
Anne Bolyn
He did it right quickly a merciful man
She said 1+1 is 2
but Henry said that it was 3
So it was
Here I am

Talula
Talula
I don't want to lose it
It must be worth losing if it is worth something
Talula
Talula
She's brand new now to you
Wrapped in your papoose
your little fig newton

and Jamaica
Do you know what I have done
Mary M weaving on said
what you want is in the blood of senators

I got Big Bird on the fishing line
I got a bit of a shout bit of a shout
a bit of an angry snout
He's my faourite hooker of the whole bunch
and I know about his only bribe
and how the Russians die on the ice
I got my rape hot on
honey but I always could accessorise
and I never cared too much for the money
but I know right now
that it's in God's hands
but I don't know who the father is

Talula
Talula
I don't want to lose him
he must be worth losing
if it is worth something
Talula
Talula
He's brand new now to you
Wrapped in your papoose
Your little fig newton
