Here Comes the Monster - Jenny Owen Youngs
Here comes the monster
So ready yourself
A cupful of ashes
A knife in your belt
Here comes an answer
That I harpooned
Dragged it to deck now
So we should know soon
Nononononono lie
Nononononono lie
Nononononono
Nononononono
Nononononono lie
From me or you
Oh no it's coming round just like you said
Can't keep my promises can't keep my head
I'll bring the gunpowder you bring the lead
Crossed up my fingers
And let the cord rip
With barely a whisper
We set you a drift
You might not come back love
But what if you do
Hammers and torches
Just waiting for you
No nonono nono lie
Nononononono lie
Nononononono
Nononononono lie
Nononononono
Nononononono
Nononononono lie
From me or you
Oh no it's coming round
Just like you said
Can't keep my promises can't keep my head
I'll bring the gunpowder you bring the lead
