Sparrow

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

Owls out swooping and howling

Deep in the midnight a' prowling

Mama the scream of the eagle

Threading my heart through the needle

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

Distantly hearing the bell toll

Warbling chime through the meadow

Mama the scream of the eagle

Threading my heart through the needle

Threading the blood through the apple

Eve sucked the juice from the apple

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

Adam came trembling beside her

And he said, he said

"She has the poison inside her

She talks to snakes and they guide her

She has the poison inside her

She talks to snakes and they guide her

She has the poison inside her

She talks to snakes and they guide her"

She has the poison inside her

She talks to snakes and they guide her
