lyrics

Halfway to Lympus on the Dart Hill Road
Lamb’s blood painted on the rabbit’s door
I was invited by the two dollar whore
To read to her cat while her guard dog snored

Finished my cake with the King Arthur flour
Made my rest at the bedlam hour
She lay in the dirt like a wilted flower
Just below her belly where the cherry soured

Me oh my, what have I done
I feel the evil down in my bones
And it came across me like a violent storm
Wasn’t me who acted alone

So I went back to the rabbit’s hole
The one with the lamb’s blood on the door
And told him all about the two dollar whore
how I read to her cat while she bled out on the floor

He said “I can see by your tongue that you tell no lies
I can see by your face that you have no eyes
I can see by the way that you wear your skin
The hole where you let the darkness in”

So I went back to the wilted flower
The deed I done at the bedlam hour
She lay in the dirt with a godless power
The seed of the devil growing down inside her

She said “Now it’s time for you to run
Time for me to have some fun
You can never go back to where you’re from
Never undo what’s already done”

Thirty days and I’m out of rehab
That little meth lab sucked me right back

And I’m halfway to Lympus on the Dart Hill Road
Halfway to Lympus on the Dart Hill Road
Halfway to Lympus on the Dart Hill Road
Lamb’s blood painted on the rabbit’s door
I was invited by the two dollar whore
To read to her cat while her guard dog snored
