the decemberists – the black maria lyrics

Loading...

[intro]
there in my memory
just on periphery
loose knit like gauze on the center line
the broke down cobblestone drive
the black maria

[verse 1]
for when it comes for you
nothing be done for you
write down your name on the bottom line
shut up your mouth, son
here’s the black maria

[chorus]
the black maria comes for us all
can’t you hear their boots in the hall
answer your name when they call
the black maria

the black maria

[verse 2]
where arе the neighbors
the bootblacking laborеrs
windows are dark and the shutters drawn
the only lone souls who roam
we’re all pariahs
see the decemberists live
get tickets as low as $37
turn down your lantern light
set your affairs to [?]
put up the prayers that you [?] on
’cause everyone is an enemy
come the black maria

[chorus 2]
the black maria comes for us all
line them up with their backs to the wall
it’s gone by the time they all fall
the black maria

the black maria

[chorus]
the black maria comes for us all
can’t you hear their boots in the hall
answer your name when they call
the black maria

the black maria

[outro]
there in my memory
just on periphery
loose knit like gauze on the center line
the broke down cobblestone drive
the black maria
