Thanks for asking.
Yes it’s true, we’ve been waiting for you.
We’ve been waiting for you.
Persuade your husband he should stay at our disposal for today and take down everything we say
About the new school bus assistant snuck in charge
of leaving seven sleeping children in their seats, in a trance, induced by air-conditioning.
So I went back up to our room
And told my husband to sit down on the end-table

As I try to fill all of my empty days,
I stumble round on through my memory's maze;
of all my past, only the sadness stays.

I went moping down by the bridge;
I rode a bike in the snow to the mini-mart;
I thought of the ways that I've broke my own heart.

I went on down unto the duplexes of the dead
Where the shades are drawn and the shadows shut
Unless you know the magic word
Seldom said but often heard
Bite your lip then spin around three times

On our honeymoon, my husband sat still
With a look in his eyes and a pen in his left hand

I was wielding my axe dunk whisky at the bar every night coming home out of the windshield of my car
I would look through the boughs and think I saw my lucky star.
I was spreading my sheets took dinner all alone every night of the week awaiting by the phone
And I’d dab off my tears with my favorite pine cone.
Needle prick my spruce root
Dear little hemlock shoot
Make me stay sharp and keen, evergreen.
I would tend to my bees sell honey on the road every fall in the wet watching lorries take their load

Last day in May, the afternoon: remember?
Black marks off charcoal from the dune: remember?
I thought it wouldn’t be too soon; we’d wait at least until its June.
The twenty-ninth of March it rained: remember?
You looked so sad that I explained: remember?
You knew it wouldn’t be too soon; we’ll have to wait until its June.
I’ve been waiting since I don’t know when and now it finally seems about to start.
I swear, I swear, that I will do my part.

There's a town I know called Nevers,
no Nevers
never wasn't was what it weren't

when it wasn't once. Knew Nevers?
Knew Nevers?
Nothing never I'll ever learnt.

Sing for me, my daughter, sing for me.
When I'm away you'll be the siren that will finally lead me home.
The girl around her father throws her arms to make him stay:
My daddy dear it hails, it blows; you cannot go today!
Sing for me, my daughter, sing for me.
When I'm away you'll be the siren that will finally lead me home.
The April mud was on his boots, a' clinging through the fields
And desperate it send up its shoots-but at water's edge it yields.

I married a man oh then
I married a man oh then
I married a man he was the plague of my life
And I wish I was single again
I wish I was single again
Cause when I was single, my pockets did jingle and I wish I was single again
He beat me and banged me oh then
He beat me and banged me oh then

The end is near
The end is near, the time has come
There ain't no way
Nobody will save you now

The end is near
The end is near, the time has come
Don't even think

Goat's head in the deli case
Oh sweet angel-angel-bearded face
Paper maché parade on at night
That's what you do with no sunlight
In the tropical tropical
Tropical ice-land
Bleak church on a cold tundra
Mountain-glacier-glacier-glacier-stream
