Soap and Water (Acoustic Version) Suzanne Vega

[Verse 1]
Soap and water
Take the day from my hand
Scrub the salt from my stinging skin
Slip me loose of this wedding band

[Verse 2]
Soap and water
Hang my heart on the line
Scour it down in a wind of sand
Bleach it clean to a vinegar shine

[Chorus]
Daddy's a dark riddle
Mama's a headful of bees
You are my little kite
Carried away in the wayward breeze

[Verse 3]
Soap and water
Wash the year from my life
Straighten all that we trampled and tore
Heal the cut we call husband and wife

[Chorus]
Daddy's a dark riddle
Mama's a handful of thorns
You are my little kite
Caught up again in the household storms
Daddy's a dark riddle
Mama's a hеadful of bees
You are my little kite
Carriеd away in a wayward breeze
