Slim Twig - Maudlin Jack lyrics

Dear friend karnivale And confidant kabaret Among us pooled 14 knives And to me what did they say? Oh i being me Being a real maudlin jack - they says 'Go to m'ladies foxskin chambers With a rook and a pack' They says 'go to m'ladies foxskin chambers With an axe and a rack' Oh novella! The psychedelia It dovetails and it spirals 'Hind my eyes I's that gla**-eyed knifeman Bleeding scarlet on your chipped tile! I's that man with heartbreaker In the back A rook and a pack An axe and a rack! Well just then karnivale, kabaret And a coupla devilish crooks Were hummin on the corner I come out cut and hooked 'Well she looked me in the eye I's buzzin I's aflame She see my ginger antonym And she a charlatan liar Then i heard a crash I heard a crash Oh! raven you got me Yes raven you got me Oh yeah! Well he threw me a spade So i struck him I struck him And i's burnin I's aflame I's hummin I's buzzin Oh yeah Oh yeah Oh ascension, ascension Don't call me by my first name My first name I's burnin I's aflame Is hummin I's hummin Oh i heard a crash I heard a crash I heard a crash So I I struck him I struck him
