Lyrics   status: unconfirmed

If I could give you anything
I would give you a kick
You'd rather have a dollar
Than a hug from your sis
You've really fucked up this time
The old lady's really pissed
She's not just laughing
She's polishing her fist
If you could give me anything
Would you consider a fist
Don't give me your soul
It's caught in the abyss
Here's a pack of ciggies
Fresh from the wonderless
A dream is a wish your heart desires
Cinderella is a kiss
The cold is gonna take you
Freeze away your tears
Come a little closer honey
We can be so near

I'd like to crawl inside you
But you got no sense of time
I'd like to crawl inside you
But I'm scared that I'm gonna cry

If I could give you anything
I would give you a kick
You'd rather have a dollar
Than a hug from your sis
You've really fucked up this time
The old lady's really pissed
She's not just laughing
She's fixing your favorite dish
Here's a pack of ciggies
Fresh from the wonderless
A dream is a wish your heart desires
Cinderella is a kiss

NOTES:

  • "Cinderella's Big Score" 8-track demo recorded in November 1989 @ Waterworks in NYC.
  • The second verse is longer than the LP version and features a lyric not included on the album.
  • The Waterworks demos were all remixed by Jim O'Rourke & SY for the 2005 Goo deluxe reissue. In many cases, the difference is significant. An additional minute and a half of squealing solid drone feedback from both guitars is generously offered on the reissue.
