THE DECEMBERISTS
"The Tain: Part II"

Husband: Damn your ankles and eyes wide
From your fingernails to your ponytails too.
King of the insects and the m-5
Over Charlemagne in a motorcade too.

And baby needs a new prize
Baby needs a new and shiny prize.

Captain: In this place called Heavenly
You were born here.
This place called Heavenly
You were born here.
You were born here.

Husband: And now all the marchers descend from high
I will dedicate all of my awakenings to this.

And damn all the angles that oppress my sight
I will bleed your heart through a samovar soon.

And baby needs a new prize
Baby needs a new and shiny prize.

Captain: In this place called Heavenly
You were born here.
This place called Heavenly
You were born here.
You were born here.
You were born here.
