Marquis in Spades

Band's Comments Lyrics
Billy: "The band never really liked this song. They were always snickering at it, but I always liked its sheer brutality. It was recorded live on my 8-track recorder, on which I've done almost all my demos since before Gish."

 Written by Billy Corgan

and i'd love you to notice i'm devoted
to destroy for no one
now it's that time again to take revenge
on all the debutantes and their friends
the bitter charlamanges so self absorbed
the bodily remains such a bore

was i good enough to break you

and all i see is empty
cause now i'm one of them so adored
the slink of impotence that money can afford
we know who you are and where you live
is your innocence all that you can give

was i good enough to break you

in the back of the car
the angel dust was given back to the stars
and in this fall from grace
we'll meet again another time another place
i've been down deep in you and me
let's see where we can go

angels, barbed wire fuck you, desire
