Carsie Blanton - Fever Dream lyrics

Artist: Carsie Blanton

album: So Ferocious


Oh the day was so hot
On st. anthony street
That I slept on my cot
Without even a sheet
When I crept to the door
And I cracked it a peek
In the weather did pour
Like a pipe sprung a leak
So I slipped on my kicks
And the dress with the scoop
And I did up my lips
And stepped out on the stoop
Where the light was so lush
And the air was so sweet
I fell into a hush
In the feverish heat
Oh, summer in New Orleans
So sudden and stranger than a
Fever dream
So I walk to the west
On the cobbles and bricks
Mockingbird in a nest
Talks in cackles and clicks
Tall magnolia trees
When I turn to the south
Press their bliss to the breeze
Like a kiss to the mouth
So I sat on a stump
Til there passed a parade
Where the drummers all thumped
And the trumpets all played
But a thundercloud breaks
With a rumble and crack
And the streets turn to lakes
And the people turn back
Oh, summer in new orleans
So sudden and stranger than a
Fever dream
Now I sit on the deck
With the rain on the roof
And the dog is a wreck
And the cat is aloof
And the city don't sleep
But she crawls into bed
With a grin in her teeth
And a song in her head
