Lyrics

The Red Baron is hiding behind a cloud
And you’re Snoopy, a foodbowl on your head
A red hankerchief, hanging from a stick
Or in the back of cars that make you sick

Oh sit down son, I’ll tell you what you’re worth
Oh sit sown son, come floating back to Earth

A broken orchard, the summer lasts for years
Behind the sundial, the elven disappear
And from the old oak, a tire as aswing hangs low
The noble wolfhound is gentle with the crow

Oh sit down son, I’ll tell you what you’re worth
Oh sit sown son, come floating back
And give me a wide birth

In between the dirt and the pine
In between what’s fucked and what’s fine

An errant light bulb burning at your feet
Take revenge on a kite-eating tree
The boy with the blanket who pats birds on the head
He told you he dreams of flying, and this is what you said

Oh sit down son, I’ll tell you what you’re worth
Oh sit sown son, come floating back to Earth
