Jim Carroll Band Nothing Is True Lyrics

You get nothin' back for all you save
Just eternity in a s___ious grave
She said, "Nothing is true, everything is permitted"

Things just go from bad to worse
It starts like a kiss, it ends like a curse
But, nothing's true, she said everything is permitted

She got jewels on her tongue to time the stars
She drives all morning in un-marked cars
But nothing's true, hey, it's all permitted

She got these special tools just to keep things tight
They robbed her eyes long ago of light
But, nothing is true, she told me it's all permitted

She got inscrutable poise, a Nile of charm,
She gets her sleep through tubes in her arm
She said nothing's true, she said everything's permitted

She nods on graves, the marble's cold and white,
Her dreams surround the sun like a satellite
She said nothin' is true, she told me it's all permitted

The spiders milk her thigh, it does not phase her
She cleans her skin with a krypton laser
Nothing is true, everything is permitted

She got heels so high, she got a gown so thin
Her eyes stop the whip before it tames her sin
She says nothin' is true, everything is permitted

Until they perfect the techniques to clone
Y'all better remember you're all alone
Because, nothing is true, she said everything is permitted
