You're boned like a saint
With the consciousness of a snake

You're the kind of girl
I'd like to find
Face like an angel
But you're boned like the devil

Your eyes have shifted from me
Everyone saw what you did
You have slipped from beneath me
Like a false nervous squid

Oh, no more horses, horses
We're going to swim like a fish
Into the hole in which you planned to ditch me
My lovely
Vera Marie

Planned to leave me cold
But you'll never get your wish
On the twenty fourth of May

I gather up your reins
You filled me with a vengeance
And you touched me with your breath
I'm gonna pull you from this dance
You're gonna ride so easily

Oh, no more horses, horses
We're going to swim like a fish
Into the hole in which you planned to ditch me
My lovely
Vera Marie

Hey! Come on, Vera
Oh, no more horses, horses
We're going to swim like a fish
Into the hole in which you planned to ditch me
My lovely
Vera Marie

I was your victim
I was well deceived
Hell's built on regret
But I love your naked neck
And evil lies that you told me
Made me believe you're two-faced
But there's two faces have you
And they're both gonna jump

Oh, no more horses, horses
We're going to swim like a fish
Into the hole in which you planned to ditch me
My lovely
Vera Marie
