Blitzen Trapper Furr Furr Yeah, when I was only 17, I could hear the angels whispering So I droned into the words and wondered aimlessly about till I heard my mother shouting through the fog It turned out to be the howling of a dog or a wolf to be exact. The sound sent shivers down my back but I was drawn into the pack. And before long, they allowed me to join in and sing this song. So from the cliffs and highest hill, yeah we would gladly get our fill, howling endlessly and shrilly at the dawn. And I lost the taste for judging right from wrong. For my flesh had turned to fur, yeah And my bouts, they surely were, turned to instinct and obedience to God. You can wear your fur like the river on fire. But you better be sure if your makin' got a liar. I'm a rattlesnake, babe, I'm like fuel on fire. So if you're gonna' get made, don't be afraid of what you've learned. On the day that I turned 23, I was curled up underneath a dogwood tree. When suddenly a girl with skin the color of a pearl, wondered aimlessly, but she didn't seem to see. She was listnin' for the angel just like me. So I stood and looked about. I brushed the leaves off of my snout. And then I heard my mother shouting through the trees. You should have seen that girl go shaky at the knees. So I took her by the arm we settled down upon a farm. And raised out children up as jubilee as you pleased. And now my fur has turned to skin. And I've been quickly ushered in to a world that I confess I do not know. But I still dream of running careless through the snow. An' through the howlin' winds that blow, across the ancient distant flow, it fill our bodies up like water till we know. You can wear your fur like the river on fire. But you better be sure if your makin' got a liar. I'm a rattlesnake, babe, I'm like fuel on fire. So if you're gonna' get made, don't be afraid of what you've learned. |
