lirik lagu coroner & knives – al duvall
in the town of towanda where the leaves ever fall
by the lithia river in the freemasons’ hall
there’s a lithograph picture that’s turned to the wall
a memento of long*ago lives
ah. the years have unraveled their cloaks and their veils
now the beast can be seen ‘neath the top hat and tails
for in death all that grow are the t**th and the nails
here’s a picture from coroner & knives
see the young couple strolling content as can be as
he carves their initials in the old lynching tree
then she limps off to work at the glue factory
while he frequents bordellos and dives
there’s the dashing lieutenant who conquered the waves
he appoints his blind mother to manage his slaves
and has unwanted children in untended graves
here’s a picture from coroner & knives
on her knees in a church in the front of the pews
is a poor hungry urchin igniting a fuse
for the steeple she claimed was obstructing her views
of the hills where the sycamore thrives
in the great granite mansions set firm in the mud
are the men who chew souls as a cow chews her cud
and their pinkies are raised as they sip steaming blood
here’s a picture from coroner & knives
oh sensitive listener, do not think me cruel
for the saint of today may tomorrow look a ghoul
and dank is the mineshaft that leads to the jewel
and the honey is sweetest down deep in the hives
here’s a picture from coroner & knives
