Shakey Graves - Coat of Arms lyrics

[Verse 1] So hang my up from your rafters Yeah, oh baby, peel me apart for the glow Yeah oh keep me like a present And display me so everyone knows Yeah, and you can hand my poor skin from the rafters And peel me apart for the glow But, oh, I've got nowhere to go Yeah this is the only jail I've known [Chorus] So it's out of the fire and into the flame I'll stay a cage-bird the rest of my days Yeah, baby, come along and go sell the farm You know I'd always trade it in for a new coat of arms [Verse 2] So I say "why do you worry? Yeah, why do you constantly ask 'When is the last day of school?'" Oh, today is the first day of cla** And I know that you will be waiting Yeah, I know you're that silly-old a** That knows every task And I won't be showing up last [Chorus] Cause it's out of the fire and into the flame Oh, I stay a cage-bird the rest of my days Oh baby yeah come along let's go sell the farm And go trade it in for a new coat of arms
