Gouge Away (Pixies cover)

The Promise Ring

Gouge away, you can gouge away, stay all day, if you want to. Missy aggravation, some sacred questions, you stroke my locks, some marijuana, if you got some. Gouge away, you can gouge away, stay all day, if you want to. Sleeping on your belly, you break my arms, you spoon my eyes. Been rubbing a bad charm with holy fingers. Gouge away, you can gouge away, stay all day, if you want to. Chained to the pillars, a 3-day party. I break the walls and kill us all with holy fingers. Gouge away, you can gouge away, stay all day, if you want to.

    Why is this song listed under the promise ring? this is a pixies song and should not be attributed to the promise ring, even if they cover it.

    True, this is a Pixies song originally, but I think it should be listed here, as TPR does cover it, and there are people that will hear this song, but not know that it was originally a Pixies song. If they come here to look at the lyrics, they will know it is just a cover. Posting lyrics to songs that a band covers is fine, as long as it is noted somewhere that it is a cover song.

    Everybody covers the Pixies nowadays. Even David Bowie. It's probably because the Pixies are rad and a half.
