String of Pearls Lyrics

Cover art for String of Pearls lyrics by Soul Asylum

Dave Pirner's greatest lyric i reckon. A narrative of a single pearl broken from a prostitutes necklace. Incorporating a twin headed president, because two heads are better than one, even in one's hands. Yeah it's about a cycle. An absurd cycle. The pearl ends up with a prostitue.
