I`ll call you sister Carrie but I`ll never say it
Mute it to a whisper
And spin your solar sister
And magnet will deliver
An arrow from her quiver
I`ll call you sister Carrie but you`ll never hear it
Fifty minutes later
As time pulls down her fader
And nibbles off the fakers
Who roll under the breakers
I`ll close my eyes and listen to you read the story
Knowing I`ll soon be left behind
So won`t you read sister Carrie Jean, sister Carrie
Always the patient one
I`ll call you sister Carrie I won`t breathe a word
Frosting on the beater
The flag trips down the meter
You thought you could defeat her
You`re lucky you could meet her
I`ll close my eyes and listen to you read the story
But I`m already far behind
So won`t you read sister Carrie Jean, sister Carrie
Always the patient one
I`ll close my life and let you teach me a new story
Out of the pages of your mind
And magnet will deliver
So, spin, my solar sister
And you can read, sister Carrie, read...
