lyrics

IN OUR DISCONTENT IN THE BLEAK MID-WINTERTIME
IT WAS HEADHUNTING SEASON, OR THEREABOUTS
BEHOLD, A GOD MORE POWERFUL THAN I
WHO COMES TO SLEEP ON MY COUCH
YOU SEE RED AND WHITE AND PINK AND BLACK
YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TO MAKE OF MS. MARY MACK

IN THE DEAD OF SUMMER I WENT TO THE ISLAND OF THE MAN-EATERS
CALL IT CIRCES, SIRENS- I WASN'T ANSWERING MY PHONE
JUST HUMOR ME, I WOULDN'T BELIEVE ME EITHER
HER LOOK TURNS MEN INTO PIGS AND WOMEN TO STONE
THOUGH YOU'RE DEAF, BLIND, DUMB, & STRAPPED TO THE MAST
'THANK YOU FOR THE BEAUTIFUL DAY' SAYS MS. MARY MACK

IT'S INDEPENDENCE DAY AND I SING MY SAD SONGS
AND EMERGING FROM THE WOODS SHE SINGS ALONG
I PUT OUT THE CAMPFIRE AND PUT AWAY MY GUITAR
I THREW THE SNAKE FROM THE ROAD, SHE GOT IN THE BACK OF MY CAR
WHEN YOU'RE LEAVING HELL YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO LOOK BACK
EVEN THOUGH IT'S HARD TO KEEP YOUR EYES OFF OF MS. MARY MACK

IT'S THE IDES OF MARCH AND I FIGHT WITH MY BEST FRIEND
WITH LONG KNIVES DRAWN, PAL, I WOULDN'T HOLD YOUR LAST BREATH
ET TU, DAN? - THE INDIGNITIES NEVER END
'WHO IS SHE?' - RED THREADS, FATES WORSE THAN DEATH
YOU MYTHOLGIZED HER, NEVER LOOKED BEHIND HER MASK
BUT YOU'D SURE STILL LIKE TO GET TO KNOW MS. MARY MACK
