I sit besides his bed

Brushing the weather from his hands

If I'm no longer making sense

I no longer think I can

There was snowfall in New York City

Earthquakes down below

Dappled sunlight in vineyards

Where nothing ever grows

Take the earth out of his mouth

And the boot from off his chest

There is nothing more to ask of him

He done better than his best

Mark the day he was born between kin and bone

Between silken and flesh

On sweet paulownia wood she found the tone

His body did the rest

She'd dust the strings with c*****e

Rubbed her finger on his lips

Come on tell me what you see child

And I'll leave you with a kiss

Mother

Put a crown upon his head please

Yes let's anoint the one

Celebrate his place in history

Come sing along

They placed their fingers on his spine

T-Nine and two

Bite down upon the metal boy

My colored confetti drifts for you

Place a crown upon his head

Count the days

Oh
