SINGER: Luscious Jackson

SONG:Roses Fade

With precious scents of summer time
the lightning bugs said you were mine--
when i asked you to be kind
i found i had to wait in line--
you told me tales of love gone wrong
but you were paid to sing a long--
i knew the only lover's song
i knew the only lover's song--
Chorus:
i watched your roses fade away
the wings came off your back today--
and i saw all the truth behind
the pretty pictures in my mind--
You angel came a floating down
your halo it fell to the the ground--
the flies swarming into town
and starting circling round and round--
there was a body lyin' there
and whose it was i didn't care--
the prophet aly upon the stair(?)
the funeral was common fare--
