Amelia - St. James
you were warned of snakes in the corn
of devils in the deepest green
wayward souls, the murder of crows
living in the family tree
a secret's safe in matters of faith
guarded with a fist and fang
the prophet's got a broom and mop
and an eye for shiny things
the trash is filled with scraps of silver
to twist and rearrange
heaven sent a message meant for you to hear, St James
built a shrine of wrappers and twine
kept it all with glue and pins
every fold was gilded in gold
at a table set for kings
you were born of holier forms
never as you seemed to be
indisposed receiving in code
through branches on the family tree
of devils in the deepest green
wayward souls, the murder of crows
living in the family tree
a secret's safe in matters of faith
guarded with a fist and fang
the prophet's got a broom and mop
and an eye for shiny things
the trash is filled with scraps of silver
to twist and rearrange
heaven sent a message meant for you to hear, St James
built a shrine of wrappers and twine
kept it all with glue and pins
every fold was gilded in gold
at a table set for kings
you were born of holier forms
never as you seemed to be
indisposed receiving in code
