RIVERDANCE
There's a woman here with a broken record player And a dusty compass, off to map the country's new behavior Strange words and we all get dunked into the river Brave boys in the empty coats of men There's a kitchen timer, distractions and reminders Rolly-pollies started crawling across your family's china Strange words now we're spilling blood into the river Dead dogs on the winter night again There's a serpent charmer, pair of shoes and wander Speeding ticket, you're not leading that last lamb to slaughter Strange words and we all throw our clothes into the river Good girls come and kick you in the shin There's a hopeful hunter that has a sense of wonder And leaving claw marks on the rock he hid his money under Strange words that we hold on back into the river And made men only want to live again
