Rabbit Fur Coat - Jenny Lewis/The Watson Twins[00:00:00]
I was of poor folk[00:00:11]
But my mother had a rabbit fur coat[00:00:15]
And a girl of less character pushed her down the LA river[00:00:20]
Hand over that rabbit fur coat[00:00:25]
She put a knife to her throat[00:00:33]
Hand over that rabbit fur coat[00:00:38]
When my ma refused the girl kicked dirt on her blouse[00:00:42]
Stay away from my mansion house[00:00:48]
My mother really suffered for that[00:00:56]
Spent her life in a gold plated body cast[00:01:00]
Now you ask did she get that girl back[00:01:05]
She paid a visit to that mansion house[00:01:10]
She knew the girl was not there[00:01:18]
But her father was in cufflinks with slicked back black hair[00:01:23]
He invited her in they never sang a note[00:01:28]
But she took off that rabbit fur coat[00:01:33]
And who do you think came home[00:01:41]
Miss so and so[00:01:46]
She took one look at my ma and what did she say[00:01:51]
Why are you stealing from my mansion house[00:01:56]
No I'm in love with Mr. so and so[00:02:04]
He invited me in I'm a girl no more[00:02:09]
Then she dragged my ma out by her throat[00:02:14]
Hand over that rabbit fur coat[00:02:19]
Let's move ahead twenty years shall we[00:02:27]
She was waitressing on welfare we were living in the valley[00:02:32]
A lady says to my ma you treat your girl as your spouse[00:02:36]
You can live in a mansion house[00:02:42]
And so we did[00:02:50]
And I became a 100000 dollar kid[00:02:54]
When I was old enough to realize wiped the dust from my mother's eyes[00:02:59]
It's all this for that rabbit fur coat[00:03:08]
But I'm not bitter about it[00:03:17]
I've packed up my things and let them have at it[00:03:21]
And the fortune faded as fortunes often do[00:03:27]
And so did that mansion house[00:03:32]
Where my ma is now I don't know[00:03:39]
She was living in her car I was living on the road[00:03:44]
And I hear she's putting that stuff up her nose[00:03:49]
And still wearing that rabbit fur coat[00:03:54]
But mostly I'm a hypocrite[00:04:02]
I sing songs about the deficit[00:04:07]
But when I sell out and leave Omaha what will I get[00:04:12]
A mansion house and a rabbit fur coat[00:04:20]
