Giant of Illinois - Andrew Bird (Andrew Wegman Bird)[00:00:00]
The giant of Illinois[00:00:13]
Died of a blister on his toe[00:00:21]
After walking all day[00:00:26]
Through the first winter snow[00:00:29]
Throwing bits of stale bread[00:00:35]
To the last speckled dove[00:00:43]
He never even felt[00:00:48]
His shoes filled with blood[00:00:52]
Delirious with pain[00:01:01]
His bedroom walls began to glow[00:01:03]
And he felt himself[00:01:07]
Floating up through falling snow[00:01:09]
And the sky was a woman's arm[00:01:13]
Sky was a woman's arm[00:01:22]
A boy with a club foot[00:01:53]
Had sat next to him in school[00:02:00]
Once upon a summer's day[00:02:07]
They went walking through the woods[00:02:09]
They spotted a sleeping swan[00:02:15]
On the banks of a muddy stream[00:02:22]
And they stormed it with rocks[00:02:28]
Till it collapsed in the reeds[00:02:31]
They laid out on the grass[00:02:40]
Full of chocolate and lemonade[00:02:43]
And underneath it all the giant was afraid[00:02:47]
And the sky was a woman's arm[00:02:53]
Sky was a woman's arm[00:03:00]
Sky was a woman's arm[00:03:07]
