When She Sang About Angels

When she sang about angels



She looked at the sky



Anybody else, anybody else, but I let it go by



When she sang about the fields



She raised up her arm



As if she was pushing back the cotton on some Midwestern farm



When she sang about a boy



Kurt Cobain



I thought what a shame it wasn't about



Tom Verlaine



When she sang about angels



She looked at the sky



Anybody else, anybody else, but I let it go by



Then she threw some names



Like she always did



She threw some names, she dropped some names



like she used to when I was a kid



When she sang about angels



She looked at the sky



Anybody else, anybody else, but I let it go by



I let it go by



I let it go by
