November

it only believes in a pile of dead leaves

stick your spoon in the wall and we'll slaughter them all

get word to April to rescue me

November's cold chain made of wet boots and rain

and shiny black ravens on chimney smoke lanes

November seems odd you're my firing squad

Fm C7 Fm
With my hair slicked back with carrion shellac
Fm C7 Fm C7
with the blood from a pheasant and the bone from a hare

tied to the branches of a roebuck stag

left to wave in the timber like a buck shot flag

Go away you rain-snout, go away blow your brains out
