Song | Bury Mary |
Artist | Cass McCombs |
Album | Prefection |
I’m tearing up the carpet | |
And I’m putting in tile | |
What if there happens to be a spill? | |
A stain would cramp my style | |
I wonder how | |
I did get here | |
To this awful place? | |
Very well, there’s work to be done | |
Anyway, I could use the space | |
Tonight I’m going to bury | |
Mary Tonight | |
I’m going to bury her | |
Tonight I’m going to fake a miracle | |
I’ll wait for the light of the moon | |
How I love the constellations! | |
Especially | |
Orion, We’ve had many conversations | |
The handsome giant slew all the wild beasts | |
For the protection of his love | |
Eos When he was blinded her rising sun | |
Returned his eyes to their greenest | |
Tonight I’m going to bury | |
Mary… I’m going to bury her china | |
I’m going to bury her clothes | |
I’m going to bury it all in one fell swoop | |
That’s the best way, | |
I suppose | |
Ping-ping goes the shovel! | |
Pang-pang goes the pail! | |
The middle of summer | |
And the furnace will be burning | |
When she gets some mail! | |
Tonight I’m going to bury | |
Mary… |
I' m tearing up the carpet | |
And I' m putting in tile | |
What if there happens to be a spill? | |
A stain would cramp my style | |
I wonder how | |
I did get here | |
To this awful place? | |
Very well, there' s work to be done | |
Anyway, I could use the space | |
Tonight I' m going to bury | |
Mary Tonight | |
I' m going to bury her | |
Tonight I' m going to fake a miracle | |
I' ll wait for the light of the moon | |
How I love the constellations! | |
Especially | |
Orion, We' ve had many conversations | |
The handsome giant slew all the wild beasts | |
For the protection of his love | |
Eos When he was blinded her rising sun | |
Returned his eyes to their greenest | |
Tonight I' m going to bury | |
Mary I' m going to bury her china | |
I' m going to bury her clothes | |
I' m going to bury it all in one fell swoop | |
That' s the best way, | |
I suppose | |
Pingping goes the shovel! | |
Pangpang goes the pail! | |
The middle of summer | |
And the furnace will be burning | |
When she gets some mail! | |
Tonight I' m going to bury | |
Mary |
