Whisk Me Away

"I think it's somewhere over there"

Said the fox in a post nap throwaway quip

Of an afternoon that he broke in two

When he said I used to think

That no one could love you as much as me

Now I think it might be impossible not to

So don't you whisk me away, not now, father

I got one chance to stone me a crow

Sally say come here now or don't bother

A good pour is what a poor man knows

Once in a while it's all about a girl in Boston

Sunday mornings slippin' into dusk

No sense in jumping the fence,

Just 'cause there's a stone on the road of happenstance

"It's up to you," said the fox, but you really must

Don't you whisk me away, not now, father

I got one chance to stone me a crow

Sally say come here now or don't bother

A good pour is what a poor man knows

To feel alive again

Whether it's a way to lose again

To feel alive again

Whether it's a way for us to feel all the same pain

To feel alive again

I reckon it's worth it in the end

Oh, it's working now, oh, it's working now

Don't you whisk me away, not now, father

I got one chance to stone me a crow

Sally say come here now or don't bother

A good pour is what a poor man knows

Don't you whisk me away, not now, father

Don't you whisk me away

Don't you whisk me away, not now, father

I got one chance to stone me a crow
