Neko Case - Magpie To The Morning

The magpie comes a-calling

drops a marble from the sky

tin roof sounds alarming

wake up child

let this be a warning says the magpie to the morning

don't let this fading summer pass you by

don't let this fading summer pass you by

Black hands held so high

the vulture wheels and dives

something on the thermos yanked his chain

he smelled your boring apex

rotting on the train tracks

he laughed under his breath

because you thought you could outrun sorrow

take your own advice

cause thunder and lightning gets you rain

run an airtight mission, a Cousteau expedition

find a diamond at the bottom of the drain

a diamond at the bottom of the drain

mockingbirds sing in the middle of the night

all his songs are stolen so he hides

stolen from the mouth of the whiporwill, screaming car alarms

he sings I'm four years special

he knows you're afraid of the dark

come on sorrow, take your own advice

hide under the bed, turn out the light

the stars this night in the sky are ringing out

you can almost hear them saying

close your eyes now kid

close your eyes now kid

morning's teeth are lit

they are waiting

they are waiting
