Album: The Lifted Brow, No. 4
This heart of gold getting stabbed by silverware
is pumping iron ink on these magnetic skies
and that stand up guy electrified in his chair
is screaming out all the names of the traitors
In disguise as he gasps for air
And the bloody bloody bird
you know she wants to chirp
and you know that she always eats her words and says
I'll be here in this business 'til I die
and I know that I totally can survive
out there alone
all alone in this bloody crooked horrible marsh.
I'll be here in this business 'til I die
and I know I can survive out there alone in the marsh. (repeat)
He's in disguise as he gasps for air
and the bloody bird she chirps and cries
and she eats her words as she flies over floods.
I know everybody's heard about the bird
everybody's heard about the bird
bird bird, bird bird's the word Oh well
This heart of gold is getting stabbed by silverware
and pumping iron ink on these magnetic skies
and that stand up guy electrified in that chair
is screaming all the names of the traitors in disguise as he gasps for air.
