Mistress of the Salmon Salt (Quicklime Girl) (Album Version) - Blue Oyster Cult (Blue Öyster Cult)[00:00:00]
In the garden district[00:00:05]
Where the plants grow strong and tall[00:00:24]
Behind the bush there lurks a girl[00:00:28]
Who makes them strong and tall[00:00:32]
The villagers call her[00:00:35]
Quicklime girl behind her back[00:00:39]
Quicklime girl behind the bush[00:00:42]
Quicklime girl[00:00:46]
She's the mistress of the salmon salt[00:00:48]
Quicklime girl[00:00:53]
Quicklime girl[00:00:55]
Quicklime girl[00:00:56]
In the fall when plants return[00:00:58]
By harvest time she knows the score[00:01:06]
Ripe and ready to the eye[00:01:10]
Yet rotten somehow to the core[00:01:13]
And they call her[00:01:17]
Quicklime girl behind her back[00:01:20]
Quicklime girl behind the bush[00:01:23]
Quicklime girl[00:01:27]
She's the mistress of the salmon salt[00:01:29]
Quicklime girl[00:01:34]
Quicklime girl[00:01:35]
Quicklime girl[00:01:37]
A harvest of life a harvest of death[00:01:39]
One body of life one body of death[00:01:47]
And when you've gone and choked to death[00:01:51]
With laughter and a little step[00:01:55]
I'll prepare the quicklime friend[00:01:58]
For your ripe and ready grave[00:02:02]
For your ripe and ready grave[00:02:05]
It's springtime now and cares subside[00:02:08]
And the plannings almost done[00:03:01]
And fertile graves it seems exist[00:03:03]
Within a mile of that juke joint[00:03:08]
Where Coast Guard crews still take their leave[00:03:11]
Quite listless in the sun[00:03:15]
And the Quicklime girl still plies her trade[00:03:18]
Reduction of the many from the one[00:03:23]
And they call her[00:03:26]
Quicklime girl behind her back[00:03:29]
Quicklime girl behind the bush[00:03:33]
Quicklime girl[00:03:36]
Well she's the mistress of the salmon salt[00:03:38]
Quicklime girl[00:03:43]
Quicklime girl they call her[00:03:45]
Quicklime girl[00:03:48]
A harvest of life a harvest of death[00:03:49]
Resumes its course each day[00:03:56]
It comes as if by schedule[00:03:59]
A harvest of limbs of arms and of legs[00:04:03]
The toes that crawl[00:04:08]
The knees that jerk[00:04:09]
The necks like swans that seem to turn[00:04:11]
As if inclined to gasp or pray[00:04:14]
