Woodpecker |
| Lovely Mary, sweetie |
| That famous window smasher |
| Was just a quiet gloom of yodel-eh-hi-hi |
| From across Wisconsin |
| She took a pitch of cocaine |
| But only for her nerves |
| Was known for trembling hands |
| A little bottle in her purse |
| She was a woodpecker |
| She couldn’t help but free |
| All the things that had inside |
| All the pretty trees |
| At dusk she took the train |
| Just a hammer in her bag |
| She went from town to town, yodel-eh-hi-hi |
| Smashing every plain of glass |
| Store fronts mirrors, windshields |
| Shattered in the night |
| Her hammer through a window’s gleam |
| Filled the air with light |
| She was a woodpecker |
| She couldn’t help but free |
| All the things that had inside |
| All the pretty trees |
| She was a woodpecker |
| She couldn’t help but free |
| All the things that had inside |
| All the pretty trees |
| In a state asylum |
| The windows caged in bars |
| The soaked her in a nice cold bath |
| Til she was seeing stars |
| Wrapped up in her straitjacket |
| Her mind still hammered on |
| Until the glasses that are smashed, yodel-eh-hi-hi |
| And she flew off into the trees |
| She was a woodpecker |
| She couldn’t help but free |
| All the things that had inside |
| All the pretty trees |
