I don't think Sonic Youth is great with lyrics, but they have some brilliant spots.
She said Jesus had a twin who knew nothing about sin
She was laughing like crazy at the trouble I'm in
Her light eyes were dancing; she is insane
Her brother says she's just a bitch with a golden chain
---
I got a catholic block
Inside my head
I let it play around
Iron to gold
---
Now he's kicked in the gut, they fucked him up, just enough
They got me down on my knees, I kiss his ring, God is love
---
I see you shaking in the light, reading the headline news
The others they're not quite so bright, you want them to choose you
I could almost see your face tonight, singing simple rhythm'n'blues
You'll always be a star
