Belly of the Beast (野兽之腹) - Madeline[00:00:00]
In the belly of the beast and out the blow hole [00:00:08]
To the salty sea she's a seagull boat [00:00:12]
Floating like a dead man all the dead tend to float[00:00:16]
And her ghost came in like a silent thief [00:00:25]
Heard the drop of a pin stole my beard of bees [00:00:29]
And there's no ugly buzzing for the keeper to keep [00:00:33]
Oh lo in the distance the stallion comes [00:00:42]
And they call him lightning for his hind legged run [00:00:46]
Boxing his hooves at the dampening dawn[00:00:50]
Come let lightning strike me down [00:00:59]
I'm ready as I'll ever be right now [00:01:03]
But we can't understand her[00:01:07]
With her teeth out her mouth[00:01:09]
She said "come let lightning strike me down [00:01:15]
I'm ready as I'll ever be right now "[00:01:20]
At the sound of applause she took a swooping bow[00:01:24]
We put heavy coins on her eyelids [00:01:33]
And we clothed her fast softening breast [00:01:37]
And her children were five flaming arrows [00:01:41]
And her ashes were solemnly left[00:01:45]
To the wind down to puerto rico [00:01:49]
Where her father stood silent she laughed [00:01:53]
Looking down at her firm able body [00:01:57]
And he pulled her now close to his chest[00:02:02]
He said "I know each love is a lifetime [00:02:06]
My darling I loved you my best [00:02:11]
Please don't cry child it's been such a long time [00:02:15]
You look like the day that I left [00:02:19]
I left I left I left I left"[00:02:23]
So come let lightning strike me down [00:02:30]
I'm ready as I'll ever be right now [00:02:34]
In the belly of the beast and out the blow hole [00:02:38]
Lord[00:02:43]
