Kristin Hersh Sinkhole
Well It's Sundown in the sinkhole It's sunrise up on the hill The thieves are sleeping in Hades' bum And they're keeping very still It's summer in Winter Haven And the earth she's caving in There's no water on the land And it's all because of sin Mary lost her bedroom When her porches all fell in Kissed his yard goodbye And it's all because of sin No-one must be told about this thieving in the night Satan stole the landscape It was gone with the morning light It's sundown in the sinkhole It's sunrise up on the hill The thieves are sleeping in Hades' bum And they're keeping very still It's summer in Winter Haven And the earth she's caving in There's no water on the land And it's all because of sin Seven buried underground Seven cranes went after them Six could not be found a swimming pool Are lost I am afeared The seventh crane approached the hole Then it disappeared It's sundown in the sinkhole It's sunrise up on the hill The thieves are sleeping in Hades' bum And they're keeping very still It's summer in Winter Haven And the earth she's caving in There's no water on the land And it's all because of sin Saint Augustine in his slumber Feels the depths of his own soul Saint Bernadette in her fields Her body beyond control The flowers of Narcissus are nailed To the underworld door And Hades had the medicine That he keeps on the floor It's sundown in the sinkhole It's sunrise up on the hill The thieves are sleeping in Hades' bum And they're keeping very still It's summer in Winter Haven And the earth she's caving in There's no water on the land And it's all because of sin
