The Tale Of Lonesome Fetter Lyrics

Black Francis The Tale Of Lonesome Fetter

See the world and you'll feel better
See the world I'm just a fetter
Leave the girl and send a letter
See the girl how you've upset her

Playing cards up in the palace
Wondering about this malice
Funny thing about this callus
Building up on my thumb
Filling up as I drum

Hear me drum
All my life drums and pipes
Lonesome me

The tale of lonesome fetter
Waiting for him to feel better
Waiting for a foreign letter
Memories of the forgetter

Drinking from the royal chalice
Thinking 'bout another Alice
Wonderful about this phallus
Building up on my thumb
Filling up as I drum

Hear me drum
All my life drums and pipes
Lonesome me

The tale of lonesome fetter
The tale of lonesome fetter
The tale of lonesome fetter
The tale of lonesome fetter
