Joesaphine at Parties
[ watch the video ]



Swastikas were peaceful
before they were natzis
like Josephine was sober
before all the parties
cognac and some demorral
while padding her falsies
with some crystal in the ladies room
and asking to rape me
"there’s a man with a knife over there
and there are more in his pocket
there’s a beach with a whale on the sand
and seven dwarfs in a rocket"

oooooo Joesaphine at parties
went sailing one day
Joesaphine at parties
come back one day
oooooo Joesaphine at parties yeah joesaphine at parties
come back one day

blow out my head
but do leave some change
I gotta save some for pinball
gotta run catch the diaphragm band
before they sell out the rose bowl
it's the best that I have
it’s the best that I can
there was never a plan
they just took it and ran
I don’t know where I am
I don’t know where I am
if walked far I’d end up
just where I began

oooooo Joesaphine at parties
went sailing one day
Joesaphine at parties
come back one day
oooooo Joesaphine at parties yeah joesaphine at parties
come back one day

Song Notes: When I lived in the bay area, there was this girl named Joesaphine (yes, spelled that way) who would just appear at my friend's rather large parties. No one knew who she was, or where she came from. She'd show up with drugs, and dance by herself in the corner. She didn't talk much. Then one day, as strangely as she appeared, she disappeared, and no one knew where she went. Like she wasn't even there.
