Once Upon a Woman's Body
Jesse Tobias / Morrissey
Once upon a woman's body
You laughed too soon
And she said she would unman you
Once upon a woman's body
You gagged too soon
And she said: I'm gonna undo you
Don't you come running home
To unleash your tears
Me and your daddy
We won't always be here
Once upon a woman's body
You went soft too soon
And she said: That's ok
I'll find someone who
Isn't you
Once upon a woman's body
You could not go through
With all of it
You can't name it
Because you can't face it
Don't you come running home
To unleash your tears
Me and your daddy
We won't always be here
Precious forbid!
Mercy me!
God be thanked!
Lamb sakes alive!
He has divined!
Precious forbid!
