Hoots And Hellmouth - Why Would You Not Go There? lyrics

rate me

I’ve built such a fanciful kingdom in my head

Say don’t you want to go there?

Why would you not want to go there?

I’ve got greens in the garden and a freezer full of meat

A one trick pony with four left feet

A chapel in the apple orchard keeping at bay

Whatever’s hollering in the holler just a stone’s throw away from where…

I’ve built such a fanciful kingdom in my head

Say don’t you want to go there?

Why would you not want to go there?

With skins in the rafters of a patched up roof

A still in a clearing for the discerning of truth

Nine miles from nowhere, somewhere is home

Firmament, foundation and a place to rot my bones

When I’ve grown

Too old to live in my skin

Too big to keep it all in

Too holy for this world of sin

That I’ve been building

The dog’s in the parlor putting on a show

For the five little children sitting in a row

They talk a lot about things they should not yet know

It’s a slow, slow going…

I’ve built such a fanciful kingdom in my head

Say don’t you want to go there?

Why would you not want to go there?
