The Maharal (Reprise)

The Maharal (Reprise) - Black Francis

Your mother is dead and gone

But I can see the lovely ghost

That's you

And I can hear her walk

Behind you she walks

You take just what you want

And I agree with you darling

But I want you to know

It's an ugly rock

You're in for a shock

My coat is long and black

Like dreams collapsed with

Things I want but can't get back

I ain't got jack

Evey on

Evey on

Evey on

Evey on

Evey on

Evey on

And the road is choked with dust

The blood libels they go on and on

Progroms on my heels

More of these black eels

My throat choked up with lust

She's a memory fading on and on

My wand can't wield

Her from death's field

Another knock on my door

I see the inbred yawn

But I don't fear the fool

I fear his drool
