Sparklehorse - Dead Opera Star lyrics

There is a dead Opera star Floating in the great Dismal swamp And he was wearing A dress with watermelons on it And he stuffed his bra With spanish moss Dead opera star Dead opera star Dead opera star Floating in the great dismal swamp Black tupelo Where all the planets beyond goes to die The air hangs thick With dead electricity He was chased by ball lightning Went crazy from sleeping under the moonlight And the soul of a unbaptised infant He swims the waters upsetting boats Dead opera star Dead opera star Dead opera star Floating in the great dismal swamp
