MeadowLark

By the fleet foxes

Meadowlark, fly your way down,

I hold a cornucopia and a golden crown

for you to wear upon your fleece'd gown.

Ah meadowlark, sing to me.


Hummingbird, just let me die,

Inside the broken holes of your olive eyes.

I do believe you gave it your best try.

Ah hummingbird, sing to me.


Hmm.


Ah hummingbird, sing to me.


Don't believe a word that I haven't heard;

Little children laughin' at the boys and girls;

The meadowlark singin' to you each and ev'ry day;

The archon on the hillside and the market in the hay.


Ooo.
