"I'll Give You My Skin" is a song written by both of the girls with  Michael Stipe. I kinda suspect that the lyrics are mostly Stipe.  Anyway, I'm told that it was recorded at the end of 1988, while the  girls were recording their first Epic album. It appears on the "Tame  Yourself" benefit compilation. Go buy it.  I'll Give You My Skin.  Well, you - you can sit in your high chairs  High chairs are for children  You can sit in your high chairs and laugh  I'll give you my best face  I'll give you my freedom  I'll give you my feet and my hands  I'm keeping my eyes  Open, open, open to the field  Hold your dances there  Take the crop  Share the yield  You can join us together  Break us apart  A wound in the skin is a break in the heart  You can coast on your laughter  High shelf your heart  But laughter's for healing, not tearing apart  I'm keeping my eyes  Open to the fields  You can hold your dances there  Take the crop  Share the yield  Not a soul is lost  For collapsing the walls  You can dance in the dust  You can walk it off, walk, walk it off  If you're fallin', you're fallin'  Come callin' to me  Fallin', Fallin'  I'll give you my skin  I will give you my skin  I'm keeping my eyes  Open to the field  (If you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to me)  You can hold your dances here  (If you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to me)  Take the crop, share the yield  (If you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to me)  I'm keeping my eyes  (If you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to me)  Open to the field  (If you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to me)  Hold your dances there  (If you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to me)  Take the crop, share the yield  (If you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to me)  If you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to me  If you're fallin, you're fallin', come callin' to me  I will give you my skin.
