What was that #%$(*@& song?

[classicdrogn]

Probably around the late eighties to early nineties, there was a song that prominently featured the lyrics "bullet with ... butterfly wings," almost certainly at the end of the chorus since that's the only line I can rememeber. It is not the Smashing Pumpkins song by that title, which is all I can find trying to search for the words (and which at no point actually features them in the lyrics of the song itself) though the singer had a similarly rough-ish sound to his voice. In my mind, the music around that patch of vocals was almost but not quite like the end-of-chorus flourish from Prince's When Doves Cry on a guitar rather than piano, but this is rather less certain because that was also in rotation on MTV, which is definitely where I heard it, to get muddled together.
