Crows

Album: Crusades of the Restless Knights

Crows

 

Some come to in grays and blues and shake like a tambourine

Some wake up and spit of the fire and it acts like gasoline

Yes sir, some drone and drool and do nothin for heaven’s sake

Some of them act like crows when they find a dyin snake

Even crows act like eagles when they find a dyin snake

 

Some been seen with a rusty knife walkin by the railroad tracks

Some been accused of laying down and workin on their back

Yes sir some drone and drool and do nothin for goodness sake

Some of’ um act like crows when they find a dying snake

Even crows act like eagles when they find a dyin snake

 

Some wake up and look around and then go back to sleep

Some come down and put on flesh and then start playing for keeps

Yes sir some drone on and drool and do nothing for nobody’s sake

Some of um act like crows when they find a dying snake

Even crows act like eagles when they find a dyin snake
