Widow City |
| Antioch agent wrote a letter per usual |
| Dated it’s 100 degrees perpetual |
| Sent via the swift dromedary |
| Traversing her ways |
| On the odd and even days |
| It said the lion has come up from his thicket |
| And they’ve managed to void my lottery ticket |
| Drunk on wormwood in Widow City |
| Widow City’s drunk on wormwood |
| Tomorrow night when the sun sets at nine |
| I might need tangle myself with the degenerate plant of a strange little vine |
| And foxes on the mountain, girls |
| There’re foxes on the mountain, girls |
| So negotiate the deserts and pits |
| You can’t rely on your dimwits |
| Wag your head and clean your clocks |
| Ready for the rendezvous with the sticks and the stocks |
| Taught the wicked ones the ways |
| Said what was sent via the swift dromedary traversing on the odd and even days |
| Drunk on wormwood in Widow City |
| Widow City’s drunk on wormwood |
| Tomorrow night when the sun sets at nine |
| I might need tangle myself with the degenerate plant of a strange little vine |
| They’ve made my chain even heavier, if you can imagine |
| They’ve made my chain even heavier, if you can imagine |
| Drunk on wormwood in Widow City |
| Widow City’s drunk on wormwood |
| Tomorrow night when the sun sets at nine |
| I might need tangle myself with the degenerate plant of a strange little vine |
