Katie Cruel - The Felice Brothers

I flew around the world

All the way from East Kentucky

In a split pea shell

I was chewing on a soda cracker

She was chewing on some chewing tobacco

In a split pea shell

The moon’s on fire, the bird’s in a cage

The dog’s all bark yeah, the band don’t play

Heaven knows it’s cruel enough

Katie Katie Cruel

I’ve been feeling fine

Ever since my execution

Living in my own abyss

Away from the miracle weapon

Away from the revolution

Waiting on a phantom’s kiss

The moon’s on fire, the bird’s in a cage

The dog’s all bark yeah, the band don’t play

The yard’s on fire, the inmates scream

I’m leaving today on this split pea street

Heaven knows it’s cruel enough

Katie Katie Cruel

The moon’s on fire, the wind’s in the grave

The clocks are ticking, Jump in place

The bell’s are ringing, A doll thinks back

The ponies roar, the planets trashed

Heaven knows it’s cruel enough

Heaven knows it’s cruel

Heaven knows it’s cruel enough
