Hole - 20 Years In The Dakota

"20 Years In the Dakota" by Hole, from 1997 compilation album My Body, The Hand Grenade. The song is a tribute to Yoko Ono, written by Courtney Love.

Lyrics:

She spent twenty years in The Dakota
Every single day was black in The Dakota
Riot girls think you can stop it,
You're forever in her debt
Well, I know you haven't saved me
And you haven't saved her yet
She spent twenty years like a virus
They want to burn the witches inside us
Well yeah, you don't fuck with the fabulous four
Or you spend the rest of your life
Picking things up off the floor
She's still alive but I am sure
That all the stars belong to her
On California king-sized beds
She's wrapped in rags inside my head
(Na na na na na na)
This is the story,
This is the story of someone's wife
Been in black pools
Her whole life
(I don't remember, I forget)
Oh, baby dry your dirty eyes
My water breaks like turpentine
The pee girl burns to be a bride
Your ever lovely suicide
Hey yeah, hey yeah
Are they coming for me?
Are they coming soon?
Hey Jude, hey Jude
(Na na na na na na)
Are they coming for me,
Judy, Judy,
Are they coming soon?
(I don't remember, I forget)
The pee girl burns to be a bride
Your ever lovely suicide
(I don't remember, I forget)
Hey yeah, hey yeah
(Na na na na na na)
I don't remember, I forget
