Yeah when I was only 17[00:00:06]
I could hear the angels whispering[00:00:12]
So I droned into the words and wondered aimlessly about[00:00:17]
Until I heard my mother shouting through the fog[00:00:23]
It turned out to be the howling of a dog[00:00:28]
Or a wolf to be exact[00:00:34]
The sound sent shivers down my back[00:00:36]
But I was drawn into the pack and before long[00:00:39]
They allowed me to join in and sing their song[00:00:45]
So from the cliffs and highest hill[00:00:50]
Yeah we would gladly get our fill[00:00:53]
Howling endlessly and shrilly at the dawn[00:00:56]
And I lost the taste for judging right from wrong[00:01:02]
For my flesh had turned to fur yeah[00:01:07]
And my thoughts they surely were[00:01:10]
Turned to instinct and obedience to God[00:01:12]
You can wear your fur[00:01:29]
Like the river on fire[00:01:32]
But you better be sure[00:01:34]
If your makin' God a liar[00:01:37]
I'm a rattlesnake babe[00:01:40]
I'm like fuel on fire[00:01:43]
So if you're gonna' get made don't be[00:01:45]
Afraid of what you've learned[00:01:49]
On the day that I turned twenty three[00:01:57]
I was curled up underneath a dogwood tree[00:02:02]
When suddenly a girl her skin the color of a pearl[00:02:08]
She wandered aimlessly but she didn't seem to see[00:02:12]
She was listenin' for the angels just like me[00:02:18]
So I stood and looked about[00:02:24]
I brushed the leaves off of my snout[00:02:26]
And then I heard my mother shouting through the trees[00:02:29]
You should've seen that girl go shaky at the knees[00:02:34]
So I took her by the arm[00:02:40]
We settled down upon a farm[00:02:42]
And raised our children up as gently as you please[00:02:45]
And now my fur has turned to skin[00:03:01]
And I've been quickly ushered in[00:03:04]
To a world that I confess I do not know[00:03:07]
But I still dream of runnin' careless through the snow[00:03:12]
And through the howlin' winds that blow[00:03:17]
Across the ancient distant flow[00:03:20]
It fill our bodies up like water till we know[00:03:23]
Yeah[00:03:28]
You can wear your fur like a river on fire[00:03:39]
But you better be sure if you're makin' God a liar[00:03:45]
I'm a rattlesnake babe I'm like fuel on fire[00:03:50]
So if you're gonna' get made don't be[00:03:56]
Afraid of what you've learned[00:03:59]
