The Magnetic Fields Railroad Boy

Tekst piosenki

I will not sing your ugly song
I won’t put on your ugly play
I cannot join your ugly priesthood
And if I die I won’t come home

[Chorus]
Railroad boy of mine

I bought you crows and candelabra
And I went moth-eating with you
I held you down when you had seizures
And read to you at bedtime

[Chorus]

We went to see a beaver dam
We went to see a coral reef
But life is more than going to see things
And that’s too bad

[Chorus] x2
