[Verse 1]
D# G# Cm
Wrapped in the wings of a sparrow

Beak is as sharp as an arrow
D# G# Cm
Sings in a whispering whistle

Sleeps in the ivy and thistle

Owls out swooping and howling

Deep in the midnight a-prowling
D# G# Cm
Mama, the scream of the eagle
C# G# G#maj7
Threading my heart through the needle

Sucking the juice from the apple

Bearing the tree of the apple
D# G# Cm
Trapped in the weeds like a scarecrow

Stuck to the wind like Velcro

Before she found fabric to shawl her

Breasts bound and burdened with fiber
C# G# G#maj7
Adam came trembling beside her
G#maj7
And he said, and he said
D# G# Cm
That she has the poison inside her
C# G# G#maj7
She talks to snakes and they guide her

She has the poison inside her
