E
Stitch up the nets but the patch won't stay
As the nail beds rest in the calico hay
A7 Am E
The Fiji Mermaid dressed in macrame's
Wading road in the fork and a bend
A7 Am
Melting like wax as that once full moons
E
Now waning ersatz acts an insufferable bore
Sharp Shots dull as a harlequins sword
A7 Am
When doing as you please doesn't please you anymore
E
Stick of the match as the paraffin show
Drop a nickel to watch the asparagus grow
A7 Am
The stone in what shell?
E
You sure like to know now don't you?
A loom in the heir as the medicine came
A7 Am
But you'll miss having someone to blame
E
For your sadness, now won't you?
Well maybe there'll be a bakery hiring
A7 Am
We'll knead a little dough to get by
C G C A7 Am(2x)
verse
C E
Did you come knocking on my door
Or did I come to yours?
C E
Whose ship came washed up on whose shore?
And from what ocean floor?
