Madilyn Mei - Kleptomaniacrow lyrics
[Madilyn Mei - Kleptomaniacrow lyrics]
Kleptomaniacrow following me wherever I go
Hoping I'll drop something so
He can add to his collection
He likes the shiniest things
Dangling trinkets, coins and beads
Offered up some crumbs to eat
But he didn't seem interested
Oh, kleptomaniacrow why follow I?
I've not much stowed away
In my pockets today
You have an eye on my necklace
You start a strange charade
A dance, a beckon me to follow
So like you always do, I follow you this time
You lead me far away
Didn't take you for a tour guide
You and I parading by deep into the wood
Oh, kleptomaniacrow
Leading me somewhere I don't know
And to my horror you led
Me to a body at rest and
There I stood shocked by your side
For to my surprise, the body was mine
Did that mean I was a ghost?
I don't remember dying
And as I stood there crying
Over my own lifeless body
You felt the time was right to snatch
The locket you'd been eyeing
To my demise, I realized
Too late and with the pull
The corpse had disappeared
And off you flew holding my soul
(A-one, two, a-one, two, three)
"Finders' Keepers"
Written in chicken scratch on my tombstone
Nice touch, thanks for that
Guess that Grim Reaper
Knew I'd never grow old awful funny
Sending birds to do your work though
"Finders' Keepers"
You finally have my soul but
Little do you know that necklace is
That necklace is
"Finders' Keepers"
Written in chicken scratch on my tombstone
Gonna pay for that couldn't know better
Who knew Death would come with feathers?
Who knew he'd send a greedy
Beak a'peckin' at my feet?
"Finders' Keepers"
Well you finally have my soul but
Word to the crow though:
That necklace is fool's gold
Hoping I'll drop something so
He can add to his collection
He likes the shiniest things
Dangling trinkets, coins and beads
Offered up some crumbs to eat
But he didn't seem interested
Oh, kleptomaniacrow why follow I?
I've not much stowed away
In my pockets today
You have an eye on my necklace
You start a strange charade
A dance, a beckon me to follow
So like you always do, I follow you this time
You lead me far away
Didn't take you for a tour guide
You and I parading by deep into the wood
Oh, kleptomaniacrow
Leading me somewhere I don't know
And to my horror you led
Me to a body at rest and
There I stood shocked by your side
For to my surprise, the body was mine
Did that mean I was a ghost?
I don't remember dying
And as I stood there crying
Over my own lifeless body
You felt the time was right to snatch
The locket you'd been eyeing
To my demise, I realized
Too late and with the pull
The corpse had disappeared
And off you flew holding my soul
(A-one, two, a-one, two, three)

Sending birds to do your work though
