lyrics

So I'm here to get my fifty lashes
They tell me it helps
To close your eyes tightly
And think of something that matters.

I'm first in line
Beginning to picture my mother's eyelashes

But wait, I'm not guilty anymore
Big whoopin' skeletons!
They bought my sin
They did my chores
Big whoopin' skeletons!
But wait, I'm not guilty anymore!

They don't do that kind of work for free
The laws of nature tax a gruesome fee
And I paid them
Oh yes, I paid them.

But wait, I'm not guilty anymore
Big whoopin' skeletons!
They bought my sin
They did my chores
Big whoopin' skeletons!
But wait, I'm not guilty anymore!

Please don't look at me that way
I can't say why just now
But the Lord knows why
And He knows how I paid them.

I come from a place the school bus never passes
Combustion engines can't combust in the sea
They say the school bus comes for someone
But that someone isn't me

It's gonna happen in the autumn
It's gonna happen in the winter
Flocks of swollen swallow birds
It's gonna happen soon.

-Lyrics written by Thomas Baltzer.
