The Triffids - Butterflies Into Worms lyrics

All you daughters, all you sons Learn your lesson from what I've done I threw away the gift of love Between every line I've ever sung A thousand times I looked you in the eye And every time I mixed the truth with lies But it seemed so good and it seemed so right Singing gospel in the yellow evening light Chorus: Yesterday the world was mine And every trick I learned The only trick I remember now Is turning bu*terflies into worms Don't put no net down below Don't call for my hand or try to see me down slow As I turn away from the morning sun To the bottle upon the shelf So tell me who to turn to baby, Who to turn to now, when you're with somebody else (chorus)
