Verse
Sally says he's coming soon
A yellow man with a foo-man-chu
I drive by him with a shiny machine
He'll make me happy just wait in see
(The whole song is this progression except for the bridge)
I know I owe you for the last 2 times
But ta I love you like you've never seen
You've got give me just enough this time
Then I promise to get myself clean
Chorus
China white is a bitter end
China white took my best friend
China white was a beauty queen
Makes me cry just to think about it
Verse
She came down from small town BC
And she was once a real beauty
It hurts me to see her that way
And I just knew it had to end someday
Ain't nothing devine in the call of the sparrow
And don't you know it's making me cry
San Ludi, ain't that way
Don't you know its fit for you baby
repeat [Chorus]
Bridge
Out on the town with my face and my Cracker-Jack soul
Down in a mire baby, how you can breathe when your face is so burned?
Verse
Sally you been meeting on a dark whale
You know I sit alone and ponder about it
It's times like this I think you're already dead
But you're to stupid to lie down!
She started out by the library steps
Looking good, but needing some coin
She started turning tricks in her room
It makes me fucking sick to think about it
repeat [Chorus] (except third line is: China white was a real beauty)
Outro
China white, China white, China white, China white,
China white, China White, Makes me fucking cry, to think, about it.
