about

Growing up with divorced parents made me think a lot about love in a different way than the Disney movies had portrayed. This song shows an unraveling and heartache. It portrays more than just one love and more than just one view, and asks but leaves unanswered the broader questions of “why do we suffer, love for one another, betray our lovers.”

lyrics

Oh Sally, come and rescue me
Feed me sugar and feed me water
Oh come sweet Sally, come and rescue me

Oh Henry, she’s gone and left you
For another, for someone other than you
Oh Henry, how you feeling now?

Oh mother, oh father
You made a child, oh how you doing?
How you feeling now that you’re living now
That you’re living your separate lives?

I hear about ‘em
Sometimes I’m in ‘em
Tears of laughter and dreams of horror
Oh why do we suffer love for one another
Betray our lovers

And oh Henry, you love Sally
And I love an idea I’ve already torn to shreds
Now it’s time to go to bed
Now it’s time to rest your head
