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 constelations! |
Especially Orion |
We’ve had many conversations |
The hansome 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… |
