lyrics

This is a song
that makes the crowd feel lull.
Makes it hard.
Doesn't make it law.

You were the labourer.
I'm the governess.

If I was a girl
I would crowd this earth
with plenty of men
working their thirst.

He looked down right.
Like a lowly knight.
Brow beating scum.
Gonna make s/he cry.

This is a song
that makes the ground feel low.
