[Caught a lite Sneeze]
Boys for Pele
liner

Caught a lite sneeze caught a lite breeze
caught a lightweight lightningseed
boys on my left side
boys on my right side
boys in the middle
and you're not here I need a big loan
from the girl zone

building
tumbling down
didn't know our love was so small
couldn't stand at all
Mr St. John just bring your son

the spire is hot
and my cells can't feed
and you still got that Belle dragging your foots
I'm hiding it well Sister Ernestine
but I still got that Belle
dragging my foots

right on time you get closer
and closer
called my name but there's no way in
use that fame
rent your wife and kids today
maybe she will
maybe she will caught a lite sneeze
dreamed a little dream
made my own pretty hate machine
boys on my left side

boys on my right side
boys in the middle and you're not here
boys in their dresses
and you're not here
I need a big loan from the girl zone

Caught a lite sneeze rather than a flu. This is one phrasing I have heard. She evidently has not had a "serious" relationship in the past and many of the men she was with were "a lite sneeze" rather than a flu. It takes time to get over the flu; but with a lite sneeze, you just blow your nose and go on with your life.

For the video, Tori says, "It's about this girl who is having a fight for her life with herself. There is this part of her that wants to be a vampire and another part of her that wants her to stop drinking boy blood."
