Hello, San Francisco Lyrics
Hello, San Francisco
Baby
I don't ever wanna die
Yeah you got me swaying
... and never making any sense
Lets throw our bones away and get happy, babe
Cause I'm seeing blue again
You are not yourself
So long chicago
Junkie
Honey I don't have the brains to fry
Yeah you had me talking
Squalking
And never making any sense
Lets throw our bones away
get new bones, babe
Teeth painted green again
I'm not myself
Let's throw our bones away
Let's throw our bones away
Let's throw our bones away
Let's throw our bones away
Let's throw our bones away
Let's throw our bones away
Let's throw our bones away
Give your bones
Baby
I'm seeing blue again
I'm not myself
I'm not myself
I'm not myself
When i belong to someone else
Baby
I don't ever wanna die
Yeah you got me swaying
... and never making any sense
Lets throw our bones away and get happy, babe
Cause I'm seeing blue again
You are not yourself
So long chicago
Junkie
Honey I don't have the brains to fry
Yeah you had me talking
Squalking
And never making any sense
Lets throw our bones away
get new bones, babe
Teeth painted green again
I'm not myself
Let's throw our bones away
Let's throw our bones away
Let's throw our bones away
Let's throw our bones away
Let's throw our bones away
Let's throw our bones away
Let's throw our bones away
Give your bones
Baby
I'm seeing blue again
I'm not myself
I'm not myself
I'm not myself
When i belong to someone else

I am in love with this song. I see that he brings up green teeth again. Can someone clear up what he means when he says painting teeth green or having green teeth? I read somewhere that it is a derogatory term for a really low class person but I could be wrong.
it might be about relapsing - same with the reference to "seeing blue again."

@firefly13000 The band set up a widget where you can send in questions and Edward answers them. Someone asked about what teeth being painted green means, and he said "I don't remember!" I guess we may never know.

The correct lyrics are "yeah, you've got me sweatin' celery, and never making any sense." The band has a Q&A site set up, and I asked Richard what the lyrics to that part were. He confirmed that "sweatin' celery" is correct.
