decemberists - odalisque lyrics
they’ve come to find you, odalisque
as the light dies horribly
on a fire escape, you walk
all rare and resolved to drop
and when they find you, odalisque
they will rend you terribly
st-tch from st-tch, ’till all
your linen limbs will fall
lazy lady had a baby girl
and a sweet sound it made
raised on pradies, peanut sh-lls and dirt
in the railroad cul-de-sac
and what do we do with ten baby shoes?
a kit bag full of marbles and a broken billiard cue?
what do we do?
what do we do?
fifteen st-tches will mend those britches right
and then rip them down again
sapling switches will rend those rags all right
what a sweet sound it makes
and what do we do with ten dirty jews?
a thirty-ought full of rock salt and a warm afternoon?
what do we do?
what do we do?
lay your belly under mine
you’re naked under me, under me
such a filthy, dimming shine
the way you kick and scream, kick and scream
and what do we do with ten baby shoes?
a kit bag full of marbles and a broken billiard cue?
what do we do?
what do we do?
lazy lady had a baby girl
and a sweet sound it made
