Joanna Newsom - Swamsea lyrics

rate me

If you wanna come on down Down with your bones so white And watch the freight trains pound Into the wild wild night How i would love to gnaw Gnaw on your bones so white And watch as the freight trains paw Paw at the wild wild night All these ghost towns Wreathed in old loam Assateague knee- Deep in seafoam Ho, swansea! Buttonwillow! Lagunitas! Ho, calico! And all these beastly bungalows Stare distend like endless toads Endlessly hop down the road Borne by wind we southward blow And yonder, wild and blue The wild blue yonder looms 'Til we are wracked with rheum By roads, by songs entombed And all we wanna do Is chew and chew and chew Dear one Drive on When all we wanna do Is chew and chew and chew And if you wanna come on down Down with your bones so white And watch the freight trains pound Into the wild wild night How i would love to gnaw To gnaw on your bones so-o white And watch while the freight trains paw Paw at the wild wild night Paw at the wild wild night Paw at the wild wild night
