[Verse 1]
F# B D#m
Wrapped in the wings of a sparrow

Beak is as sharp as an arrow

Sings in a whispering whistle

Sleeps in the ivy and thistle
F# B D#m
Owls out swooping and howling

Deep in the midnight a-prowling
F# B D#m
Mama, the scream of the eagle

Threading my heart through the needle
F# B D#m
Threading the blood through the apple

Sucking the juice from the apple

Eating the seeds of the apple

Bearing the tree of the apple

Trapped in the weeds like a scarecrow

Stuck to the wind like Velcro

Warbling chime through the meadow

Nakedly running, I saw her

Boy chasing after to stall her

I wish I'd have spoken to call her

Before she found fabric to shawl her

Breasts bound and burdened with fiber

And he said, and he said
F# B D#m
That she has the poison inside her

She talks to snakes and they guide her

She has the poison inside her
