Lyrics: Jeff Mangum
Music: Jeff Mangum
Daddy, please hear this song that I sing
In your heart there's a spark that just screams
For a lover to bring a child to your arms
That could lay as you sleep
And love all that you are like your boy used to be
Before he were down and tore at your heart
Sister please, with those wings in your spine
Love to be with a brother of mine
How he'd love to find your tongue in his teeth
In a struggle to find secret songs that you keep
Very deep in your eyes
Sounding only at night as you sleep
And in my dreams you're alive and you're crying
Move your mouth into mine, soft and sweet
Rings of flowers 'round your eyes and I'll love you
Nineteen forty and five is really...
Brother, see we are one in the same
And you left with your head filled with flames
And you watched as your brains fell out through your teeth
Push the pieces in place
Make your smile sweet to see, don't you take this away
I'm still wanting my tongue on your cheek
And when we break, we'll wait for a miracle
God is a place where some holy spectacle lies
When we break we'll wait for our miracle
God is a place we will wait for the rest of our life
Two headed boy, she is all you could need
She will feed you tomatoes and radio wires
And retire to sheets safe and clean
But don't hate her when she gets up to leave
