SINGER: Rasputina

SONG:Stumpside

All that i have is this dull paring knife
peeling potatoes the rest of my life
dirt floors make dust so i hope for the best
i carry candles with pains in my chest
Face tied together with three-times-used string...
follow me see what i mean
Fixing a fencepost or feeding a cow
twopenny saltlick i never ask how
animals like me though folks turn away
i like the pigeons i like what they say
We come alone and leave alone and we look the horse in mouth
we scratch the skin and break the bone and see birds migrating south
Chorus:
by the side of the stump where she told me these things
if you hear a bell ring you get some wings
don't bother looking for what i've neglected to bring
by the side of the stump where she told me these things
if you hear a bell ring you get some wings
she's fallen farther than feathers that float in the wind
I saw a wishing well down by the stream
i never understood what wishes mean
just ask for nothing you'll get what you get
i asked for something i've not got it yet
Chorus
