"Going To Palestine" lyrics - THE MOUNTAIN GOATS

That woman set herself on fire
They said it on the radio
They said she lit off the skies of palestine
I could not stand to hear them say so
I saw the stars come out
I saw the oranges on the trees
Later on they played some carribean song
Man they sure know how to pick 'em
The rich voice burning like a fuse
The syncopated rhythms
I saw the stars come out
I saw the oranges cracking open
I saw you standing there
Orange blossom in your hair
Going to palestine
Going to palestine
