Sufjan Stevens - I Went Dancing With My Sister Lyrics

We were, we were, we were lovers
We had no one but armed puppets

We were touching, we were turning
We were in to get to learning

Saw your mother at the river washing ribbons
Saw her sip, saw her sip the river

I've seen laymen up and walking
I've seen deaf and dead men talking

And I have had enough of trouble
I've been paid in full and double

Break a glass against the table
Break a promise if you're, if you're able

I went dancing with my sister
Call her madam, call me mister

She wore a dress, it was nice and something
Underneath her dress was nothing

She did curtsy, she did cupid
She said she did something stupid

I said: who's the buster, guider?
I can't kill or catch a fighter

Point me in the right direction
Point me to the middle section

And I have had enough of trouble
I've been paid in full and double

Break a glass against the table
Break a promise if you're, if you're able

Break a glass against the table
Break a promise if you're, if you're, if you're able
