Amos, Tori - 97' Bonnie & Clyde Lyrics

Nothing but hits on this record. If you don't have it, get it. Her choices were amazing.

Tori really nailed it, and made it her own. Very dark and morbid indeed. I own this on CD. The front cover I have is this 1.

Thought that was Mariah Carey in the thumbnail

Why did you decide to cover this??

Because she felt that Eminem's version was glorifying domestic violence. She even commented on it, with the haunting image of him killing his wife with his daughter in the car while he takes her dead body to the water.

1:48 ♥️

It has "Marshall Bruce Mathers II" as the writer

When Eminem wrote this song, he was making fun of “Two of Us” by Will Smith. His song was in the same tone as Smith’s, but with haunting lyrics, but he kept singing “just the 2 of us.” Tori took it all the way.

I would like this song was totally sung than almost totally spoken... but I love her voice spoken ^^

"'97 Bonnie And Clyde" Lyrics
Tori Amos

Baby, your da-da loves you,
and I'm always gonna be here for you
no matter what happens.
You're all I got in this world.
I'd never give you up for nothing
Nobody in this world is ever gonna keep you from me.
I love you

Come on, hey hey, We going to the beach
Grab a couple of toys, and let da-da strap you in the car seat.
Where's mama? She's taking a little nap in the trunk.
Oh! That smell; da-da musta runned over a skunk.
Now I know what you're thinking; it's kinda late to go swimming,
but you know your mama; she's one of those type of women
that do crazy things, and if she don't get her way, she'll throw a fit.
Don't play wit da-da's toy knife honey, let go of it,
And don't look so upset, why you acting bashful,
Don't you wanna help da-da build a sand castle?
And mama said she wants to show you how far she can float.
Don't worry about that little boo-boo on her throat,
it's just a little scratch, it don't hurt,
her was eating dinner while you were sweepin'
and spilt ketchup on her shirt.
Mama's messy, isn't she?
We'll let her wash off in the water
and me and you can play by ourselves, can't we?

Just the two of us, just the two of us
just the two of us, Just the two of us

See honey, there's a place called heaven and a place called hell.
There's a placed called prison and a place called jail.
And da-da's probably on his way to all of 'em, except one,
Cause mama's got a new husband, and a stepson
and you don't want a brother, do ya?
Maybe when you're old enough to understand a little better
I'll explain it to you,
But for now, we'll just say mama was real real bad,
She was being mean to dad, and made him real real mad,
But I still feel sad that I put her on timeout.
Sit back in your chair honey, quit trying to climb out,
I told you it's okay, hey hey, you wanna bah-bah
Take a night-night
Na-na-goo-goo gah-gah
Her make coo-coo-cocka...
Dad'll change your di-ey
Clean the baby up, so I can take a night-nighty.
Your dad'll wake her up as soon as we get to the water...

97' Bonnie & Clyde, me and my daughter
me and my daughter
me and my daughter

Just the two of us, Just the two of us
Just the two of us, Just the two of us

Wake up sweepy head, we're here.
Before we play,
We gonna take mommy for a wittle walk along the pier.
Baby, don't cry honey, don't get the wrong idea,
Mama's too sweepy to hear you screaming in her ear,
That's why you can't get her to wake,
But don't worry,
Da-da made a nice bed for mommy at the bottom of the lake.
Here, you wanna help da-da tie a rope around this rock?
We'll tie it to her footsy, then we'll roll her off the dock.
Ready now? Here we go, on the count of three...
1, 2, three, weee!!
There goes mama, spwashing in the water...
No more fighting with dad,
No more restraining order,
No more step da-da,
No more brotha....
Blow her kisses buh-bye,
Tell mommy you love her...
Now we'll go play in the sand, build a sand castle and junk,
but first, just help dad with two more things out the trunk

Just the two of us...

This is still one of the most chilling songs I've ever heard. I remember hearing it on a playlist and feeling my eyes get bigger and bigger as it played.

Secret life much....?🤤😈💀👾

This is awful and I don't even care if she jacked the song from Eminem (who I don't like).

No one cares what you care about or whom you dislike lol.

@wildmercuryfilms N O. She made it known, it was because he minimized/glorified domestic violence.

@wildmercuryfilms Two of Us was/is such a pure and sweet song. Why the fuck would you make fun of it?


Eminem is a known domestic abuser with numerous songs about his hatred for his now ex-wife. Even in "Hailie's Song", a tribute to his daughter, he takes the time to make a dig at her.


And before you come at me, yes I have actually listened to many of his songs. He's very talented, but this song (along with others) make it very clear how disturbed and misogynistic he is. I'm sure his ex-wife isn't perfect, but she did not deserve to have such vile songs so publicly directed at her

Holy, what the, yo.

Ooooh.....chilling

This is so disturbing, and I love it!

I DEPLORE M&M-1st what a stupid name. 2 I can’t even look at his creepy ass cuz of these lyrics. I mean WTF?!!

*Eminem

I wonder what Eminem thinks of this cover. I enjoy both but they are two strikingly different moods

Temperent Bendu No, they’re exactly the same

She just makes you realize how fucking psychotic Eminem is

Wow....

Holy crap. This makes it real and gritty in a way that Eminem never could. He was comical. This is serious, and fucking frightening.
