The Fiery Furnaces - Paw Paw Tree Lyrics



The Fiery Furnaces - Paw Paw Tree Lyrics




At last when the choice was neither/nor
Bottom of the bay we're set ashore
Went into town beg what we lack
Two hundred stripes on horseback

Wearing my yellow coat
Rope tied around my throat
Great green wax candle unlit
Silence! And then the sentence spit

I'm sitting up in my paw paw tree
Wait they make mango mush out of me

Pick axe I can't stay
Silver mines all day
Cut down the weedwood
And think that I just could

I'm sitting up in my paw paw tree
Wait they make mango mush out of me

Tied down with brown twine
Up past the tree line
Up by I hope where
The King of Spain don't care

I'm sitting up in my paw paw tree
Wait they make mango mush out of me
