lyrics

Don’t hang your wrists, don’t twitch your hips
Don’t pout your lips that’s what he told me

No tears in paradise…
...no tears

We don’t sell angst to colored kids
Your piggy banks are no good here
Pretty white boys have all the fun
Heartbroken black kid on the run

No tears in paradise…
...no tears

Jojo don’t let them see you cry
That’s right I haven’t cried in years
They say be grateful if you’re wise
They say no tears in paradise

No tears in paradise…
...no tears

It’s fight or flight, it’s might is right
It’s say your prayers and say goodnight
My lord and savior make me straight
I promise not to masterbate

Your experience is a delusion. The garden is perfect. You have everything you need. How can you feel sad?

(He’s definitely masterbating.)

I’d give up several ribs for a boy who’d hold me
I’d crumble into him like dust to dust
We are children of the sun
De-evolve into one

You can like distance yourself from what you feel. Um, it’s totally a defense mechanism.
