The Princess And The Pony Lyrics
I couldn't sleep so I took a pill
with a dirty glass of water from a low pressure hell
Someone buy a round before my liver fails
and you know it will
How many of you will be
left to make a scene
at my funeral party
Set my soul at ease by spinning wire
as I lay on my side
cause it's the earth which I have known since birth
So clap your hands if you wanna be
the little princess who finally gets the pony
or the one that steals the life from me
With that long sleeve thrift you found in Grand Forks
to cover up your track marks
Cuz when you finally come down
the pony you've been riding around town
turns out to be a man
And then overheated crimping iron burns your hands again
How many of you be will be
left to drink whiskey
at my funeral party
Remember to bring your flask
and pour a shot for
your dead homie
Shake your ass around my casket
Shake your ass around my casket
Shake your ass around my casket
and bring your beach blankets
Volley balls, wine coolers
Spin your favorite records.
with a dirty glass of water from a low pressure hell
Someone buy a round before my liver fails
and you know it will
left to make a scene
at my funeral party
Set my soul at ease by spinning wire
as I lay on my side
cause it's the earth which I have known since birth
the little princess who finally gets the pony
or the one that steals the life from me
With that long sleeve thrift you found in Grand Forks
to cover up your track marks
Cuz when you finally come down
the pony you've been riding around town
turns out to be a man
And then overheated crimping iron burns your hands again
left to drink whiskey
at my funeral party
Remember to bring your flask
and pour a shot for
your dead homie
Shake your ass around my casket
Shake your ass around my casket
and bring your beach blankets
Volley balls, wine coolers
Spin your favorite records.

its crimping iron...o man i have been looking for this song forever...it used to be on the college radio stations here all the time. i dont know exactly what it means to me but i understand what he is getting across...w00t...i found the damn song finally!
this song is awesome. i love it. its crazy.
these lyrics are fairly inaccurate. either way, it's a great song.
isn't it, "remember to bring a flask and pour a shot for your dead HOMIE"? and the line about a "dirty glass of water"... it doesn't sound like "low pressure hell",but it doesn't sound like "...well" either, which would seem to make the most sense to me... also I don't think he's saying "long sleeve grip" but that's what it sounds like... someone clear this shit up for me!
i figured these out by myself a while ago, the only two differences i have are below, starred:
with that long sleeve thrift you found in grand forks to cover up your track marks cuz when you finally come down the pony you've been riding around town turns out to be a man and then over heated crimping iron burns your hands again
oh yeah, and it is most definitely "pour a shot for your dead homie"
Ok, I made some corrections. Yeah, I did a pretty bad job with that... thanks for clearing it up for me. Also, i'm almost positive he's saying "low pressure hell". I fixed most of the errors, but they're not showing up... i'm guessing it'll just take a little bit.
as for what the song means, the beginning makes me think of an accidental overdose, reminicient of nick drake almost, and his thoughts as he's dying, or maybe just falling asleep, thinking he's dying.
this songs awesome
dude, it sounds like low pressure hell but that doesn't make sense
i always understood it to be 'low pressure -pail-" as in bucket. whatever, it's a fabulous song. lots of smack references.
