Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band - My Human Gets Me Blues
(lyrics changed from the original notation to complete words like 'n to and)
Well the way you'd been old lady
I could see the fear in your windows
Under your furry crawling brow
A silver bow rings up in inches
You were afraid you'd be the devils red wife
But it's alright God dug yer dance
And would have you young and in his harum
Dress you the way he wants cause he never had a doll
Cause everybody made him a boy
And God didn't think to ask his preference
To Swahili
To Albanian
To Japanese
To Danish
To Yiddish
To French
And back to English
I can see the fear in your window
Crawl under the stars furred your
Rainbow ring silver white
You are you, women are afraid red devil, they
But that's okay, God has dug a drum yours
And her young, and will hold its
He was a doll dressed as he wants
It was sunny all
I did not think to ask his favorite God
I wouldn't have thought to ask his favourite God either, tbh.
