I will return here one day And dig up my bones from the clay I buried nails and strings and hair And that old tooth I believe was a bear's I held my hand in the fire It burned me down to the wires ♪ Blood suckers hide beneath my bed And black fumes of skin so gently bled I slept with a cat on my breast Slowing my heart stealing my breath At sunrise, the monkeys will fly And leave me with pennies in my eyes ♪ I will return here one day And dig up my bones from the clay I buried nails and string and hair And that old tooth I believe was a bear's At sunrise, the monkeys will fly And leave me with pennies in my eyes
