Ray Childish - Deadly Mushroom Hunt lyrics

rate me

shake grains of soil from my neat new summer dress

Readjust my tousled hair – I sure look like a mess

I shake the dirt from my hands and curse the dirt behind my nails

No one mentions, they get dirty, in tales

Such a nice sunny day, yet I'm in a gloomy mood

Haven't I warned you to shut up when you started getting rude?

But you kept going on and on, gesticulating in the air

You kept a screaming and a shouting, but I didn't really care

Didn't we set out to gather mushrooms,

Equipped with a basket and a knife

This was supposed to be the gorgeouest mushroom hunt in my life

Why did you have to scold me, call me names and be so cruel

I don't let anybody rant at me like you did, as a rule

You raised my pulse and raised my heart rate

And made tears blur my sight

That's when I scratched you in the face and started a fight

I won't relate all of the details which lead to your untimely death

I don't recall how many stabs it took to color red this path

A swishing knife, a heavy moan and a thud were all I heard

Let's be honest, all your lifetime you've been nothing but a nerd

Put in terms of an equation that way as yet unheard:

Basically you're to the worms now what a worm is to a bird
